Yeah, I've gone over all that.  We've been using the HPN patches and None
cipher via openssh-portable from ports for a couple years now.  Noticed the
HPN patches were added to the base OpenSSH, though, and thought I could use
that instead of the ports version, and ran into the "no None cipher" issue.

Thanks to the gentle prodding of Bjoern, I see that I missed the mention of
CFLAGS in the commit message, which is why it wasn't working for me.  :)
 I'm going to go with over-excitement due to too much coffee for this one.

I'm testing out the make.conf snippet you posted now.
