The safest bet (both for libssh2 and generally) is to use libgpg-error
1.8 (you may need to provide --enable-static since they disabled it by
default) and libgcrypt 1.4.5. GnuTLS 2.8.6 is stable, as is GNU SASL
1.4.4. If you need recent TLS renego stuff, you may want to try just
released GnuTLS 2.10.0 but I wouldn't label it stable at this point.
