Thanks. Looks like the change took... but only for 4.8-RELEASE. 4.8-stable 
and 4.9-RELEASE still claim not to know about it. (But for 4.9R, it could 
be because there ain't no sich animal yet.) I haven't bothered to check 
other 4.x and 5.x manpages, as I'm not sure when the ssh*_config.5 
manpages were split from the corresponding ssh_.1 manpages.

Also, in sshd_config.5 (the local version, not the one fresh from the 
openssh tree):

     PasswordAuthentication
             Specifies whether password authentication is allowed.  The
             default is ``yes''.  Note that ChallengeResponseAuthentication is
Shirley there should be an "if" there? ---^^^
             ``yes'', and the PAM authentication policy for sshd includes

Anal-retentive nitpicker? Moi?
