The HPN and None cipher patches have been removed from FreeBSD-CURRENT. I intend to remove them from FreeBSD-STABLE this weekend. The HPN patches were of limited usefulness and required a great deal of effort to maintain in our tree. The None cipher patch was less onerous, but it was a terrible idea with a very small user base since it was a compile-time option and off by default. The HPN-related configuration variables have been marked deprecated, while those related to the None cipher have been marked unsupported. This means that the former will be accepted with a warning, whereas the latter will result in an error. Most users will not be affected by this change. Those who are should switch to the openssh-portable port, which still offers both patches, with HPN enabled by default. It is expected that FreeBSD 10.3 will ship with OpenSSH 7.1p2, with a number of modifications intended to reduce the impact of upstream changes on existing systems.

I am try to use FreeBSD with $HOME over kerberoized NFS. For kerberoized NFS gssd need to find cache file "called /tmp/krb5cc_<uid>, where <uid> is the effective uid for the RPC caller" (from `man gssd`). sshd contrary create cache file for received ticket called /tmp/krb5cc_XXXXXXX (random string, created by krb5_cc_new_unique). Is this strong security requirement or [FreeBSD/upstream] can be patched (or introduce option) to use /tmp/krb5cc_<uid> as cache file for received ticket?
