Somewhere between etch and now, ssh stopped reporting failed passwords
as "error: PAM: Authentication failure for foo", and switched to "Failed
password for foo", similar to what it already did for unknown users, but
without the "invalid user" part.

Here's an updated version of the "Failed X for Y" rule with the
"illegal/invalid user" part made optional:

  ^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ sshd\[[[:digit:]]+\]: Failed 
(keyboard-interactive/pam|password|none) for (i(llegal|nvalid) user 
)?[^[:space:]]+ from ([:.[:xdigit:]]+|UNKNOWN|[-_.[:alnum:]]+) port 
[[:digit:]]{1,5} ssh2?$
