I don't think one can deduce that... My point is that upstream is
extremely conservative (not saying here whether that is good or not,
just stating as fact). For the same reason, the really very useful
gssapi-fixing patch has never made it upstream, although it's adapted by
both Debian and RedHat (pushed by the moonshot people who also need it),
and would probably make the actual gsi-openssh a lot easier to
implement: I think one could do it with a stock openssh plus an addon
library.

    Cheers,
    Mischa
