Normally it should be safe doing make install. The install process removes
the sshd binary before installing the new one, so you shouln't run into
danger overwriting the running process' text file.
But I personally do it quite paranoid:
Before installing, I make a copy of the sshd binary and start it on
another port. So always an backup server is running. After installing
I kill this secondary daemon and overwrite it with the new binary.
This always worked.
