openssh unix dev - Oct 2002 - OpenSSH 3.5p1, Solaris 8, BSM, cron issue

We have started using BSM and have hit the BSM issue where cron is messed up if
you SSH into a Solaris 8 box and try to issue a cron job.

I noticed the bug here:
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125

Is this patch applied to the OpenSSH 3.5p1 release?

I tried installing OpenSSH 3.5p1 and turned off Privileged Separation in the
sshd_config file, but I am still getting the cron issues when running BSM on the
Solaris 8 server.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, including patches and methods of applying
a patch to get OpenSSH, BSM, and cron working together on Solaris 8.

No this patch has not.  There was talk that is conflicted with privsep.
And that someone was going to look at it and see how to solve the
conflict.
