btw, one more issue with the port is that configure autodetects
wtmp/utmp/lastlog stuff, using not only header include files, but
also actual logs in /var.

So, compiling openssh-portable on a 9.x or 10.x system, that was once
upgraded from 8.x or earlier, would lead to incorrect autodetection
of logging API. Even if you have run 'make delete-old', since the
latter doesn't delete anything from /var.

Thus, before compiling port, one needs to:

# rm /var/log/wtmp /var/run/utmp /var/log/lastlog
