Bzzz wrong, please try again:
configure:PRIVSEP_PATH=/var/empty

The configure script choose /var/empty by default.  vdanen choose to use
/var/empty/sshd by altering the configure call with this:
--with-privsep-path=/var/empty/sshd

Not only that but take a look at
/usr/share/doc/openssh-*/README.privsep, vdanen didn't patch this file
from it's distributed form and it references /var/empty not
/var/empty/sshd.

Finally vdanen even admitted to just choosing /var/empty/sshd in this
