Well, I have strong suspicion about the reason. It seems that ssh maintainers just leave !use_login case to be slowly rotten in time moving towards use_login case. It is because login emulation is very different on different machines, so it is much simple to just call external login program, from code support perspective. But it not means that FreeBSD must follow this path, there are almost no needs currently to call external login, moreover it is not efficient and may cause auth duplication in certain cases. -- Andrey A.
