[Bug 24777] Re: Apply openssh sftp-chroot patch to openssh-server

[Yann]

It seems internal sftp-server added to ease chroot suffer from a big
missing feature as of 4.8: It is impossible to use sftp logging as with
usual external sftp-server.

So open-ssh 5.1 should be considered for Intrepid as logging users is
required in many environments (corporate, legal aspects in some
countries).

Otherwise I think users will stay with current restricted shell + chroot
as usual.

To ease the process, scponly is easy to use but to be able to log sftp
users it's version should be upgraded to 4.8, keeping the creation of
/chroot_path/dev/null mknod as of current 4.6_ubuntu version as this
null device creation is still missing upstream. Automatically adding -a
/chroot_path/dev/log to syslogd for chrooted installs should also be a
good idea.

On Hardy, compiling from my own scponly 4.8 was the easiest way I found
to handle the problem.
