>Description:
sshguard has a known bug which causes it to crash. http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=940FAA1A-42A2-4D63-860E-B9EA5E7FAA89%40bitchx.it

This leaves core files in / which is unfriendly.  
>How-To-Repeat:
Use sshguard with ipfw, and wait for brute force attacks.
>Fix:
Either a patch needs to be applied 
or the port needs to be updated to the beta version of 1.1.  

MidnightBSD included the patch in mports:
