openssh unix dev - Jun 2002 - openssh-3.3p1 and SPARC

Hi;

I just attempted to install openssh-3.3p1 on a Sparc box running
linux kernel 2.2.14-5.0    However any attempt to connect to the
daemon causes a crash. (See below)

Given the current security issue, will there be an available option
for running the up coming 3.4 release on a Linux 2.2 kernel?

That depends on what this strange mmap(65536) call is trying to do.
What I know is that 3.3p1 works for me, but I'm on kernel 2.4.18,
so that could be why.  I've read some people saying the problem is
with shared anonymous mmap, but that doesn't seem right to me because
I have used shared anonymous mmap with the 2.2 kernel.


| mmap(65536): Invalid argument

I seem to remember mmap() having 6 arguments, not 1.  So I have no
idea what this message really means, especially the 65536 part.
