>Description:
openssh-3.7.1.2 compiles and installs OK on Solaris 7 from pkgsrc,
but when I try to run it, it dumps core.

I tried to disable support for skey, tcp-wrappers and some other 
stuff(in the Makefile), but it dumps core anyway.

When I extract the sources from the openssh archive  and compile and install it 
manually (without applying patches), the sshd seems to be OK.
(use configure, make (not bmake) in in the work directory, make install)

config.log contains both 
--with-skey=/data/pkg --without-skey
because in them Makefile there is 

.if ${OPSYS} == "Darwin" || ${OPSYS} == "SunOS"
.  include "../../security/skey/buildlink2.mk"
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --with-skey=${BUILDLINK_PREFIX.skey}
# XXX: NetBSD has 4 args (4: sslen) to skeychallenge instead of 3
#CONFIGURE_ARGS+=       --with-skey=/usr
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --without-skey
.else
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --without-skey
.endif

which does not make sense to me.

Should I send the core file and binary ?
Should I try re-compile with support for debug informatin ?
