Go to the directory parent to the one where you unpacked ssh (e.g. if
you unpacked in /usr/local/src/ssh-2.0.13, go to /usr/local/src), then
do:
patch -p0 < /path/to/patch-ssh-2.0.13-solaris.tcpd.pubkey.hang
Then configure and make as usual.
By the way, I found the same problem on HP/UX (hanging when linked with
tcp-wrappers) and the patch worked too.
Hope this helps.
