I believe the original poster mentioned pkg_info(1) output only as proof
that he had actually installed the newer version of OpenSSH. Crist's
question is directly related to the OP's original question - why, when
he types 'ssh -V', the 'ssh' binary that is run reports version 2.9.
Crist is asking whether the new ssh(1) binary, which is probably
installed in /usr/local/bin/ssh, is the one that is actually ran; there
is another ssh(1) binary on the system, the one in /usr/bin/ssh, which
is probably still at 2.something.

G'luck,
Peter
