OpenSSH 5.0p1 ignoring --without-openssl-header-check

[dan_mitton@xxxxxxx]

It seems like OpenSSH 5.0p1 is ignoring the 
'--without-openssl-header-check' switch when being built.  I configure the 
build using the command:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-zlib=/usr/local/lib 
--with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl --without-openssl-header-check 
--with-kerberos5=/usr/local

But, after building and moving to a system with a newer version of 
OpenSSL, I get:

root@nessie:/usr/local>/usr/local/bin/ssh -V
OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 908070, you have 90808f

I believe this worked with OpenSSH 4.7p1.  Am I missing something, or was 
this functionality (inadvertently??) removed?

Thanks,

Dan
