Hmm. I use 2.9p2 with no hitches, te same packe on Solaris 2.6,7,8....
The config and installation I used documented on:
http://boran.dyndns.org/security/sp/ssh-part2.html
Or
http://www.boran.com/security/sp/ssh-part2.html#Compiling and installing
on Solaris

Package generation is also covered.

I don't use egd, but prngd.. And I follow sun's SSH blueprint pretty
closely..
