I am not going away yet. Although curl is now built against libssh in Fedora,
it continues to be built against libssh2 in RHEL-6 and RHEL-7. RHEL-7 is
going to be supported for a couple of years from now (and migrating curl to
libssh in a minor update of RHEL is close to impossible).
So you can expect me to occasionally contribute fixes for bugs that are
reported against RHEL and still affect the latest upstream version of libssh2.
Honestly, that has always been my primary role in this project anyway.
