No need to do this.

For the xxx time here is the patch.
------------------------------ CUT HERE --------------------------------
This patch works with ssh-1.2.26.
Installing the patch is simple. Go to the sources directory
(~/src/ssh-1.2.26/ , or whatever) and give this command
% patch < ~/patches/patch-ssh-1.2.26.irix
(the filename depends on where you save it, and with what name)
Then run configure, make and make install as usual. Restart any
sshd-daemons currently running.

This should not be needed. SGI rsh dos not need it.
