: 'MEMORY:foobar' should work.

I believe that it should really be using a file based ccache, rather than
a memory one - it just needs to wait until after its check that the user
is OK before using it.

I've updated the patch at http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh.html
to address this, and a number of other minor issues.

Cheers,

Simon.
