Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ssh

Please enable the 'none' cipher on sshd.

This will prevent people from having to recompile their sshd to enable
it.

The none cipher is only used if the client explicitly requests it.
Furthermore, the admin has the option of disabling it entirely via the
'Ciphers' parameter of the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file.  The shipped
sshd_config file could even disable it as per default.

With the ability to have this option configurable via a config file it
seems a bit heavy-fisted to disable it at compile-time.
