Yes, and I had never had src/secure in my tree until it became required for openssh. The people dealing with crypto have been treating things like src/secure has become required functionality, and it's not unusual for the world to be broken without src/secure. So, things *have* changed, from my point of view. Because src/secure became a virtual requirement, the default I want, MD5, is not default anymore. -- Daniel C.
