System: NetBSD ns.back-street.net 5.99.51 NetBSD 5.99.51 (HPMICRO) #62: Thu Apr 28 14:29:53 JST 2011 taca@reef.back-street.net:/var/obj/sys/arch/amd64/compile/HPMICRO amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
	strnvis(3) has different argument from OpenBSD.

	It is declared in <vis.h> as:

		int	strnvis(char *, size_t, const char *, int);

	But, originally on OpenBSD:

		int	strnvis(char *, const char *, size_t, int);

	Compiler shows warning but not error in general.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Compile openssh 5.8p2 outside of pkgsrc and start sshd.  It would
	crash on logging to syslog at first time.
>Fix:
	I don't know this difference is intentional or not.  But it is too
	bad that the same function has different argument.
