1.1 deraadt 416: is being upgraded from OpenSSH 3.0 to OpenSSH 3.0.2 to fix a few problems:

422: By default, OpenSSH KerberosV support only becomes active after KerberosV
423: has been properly configured.
424: <p>
425: <li>An excessive memory clearing bug (which we believe to be unexploitable)
426: also exists, but since this may cause daemon crashes, we are providing a
427: patch as well.
