Hah! Forget I did that. I wrote those before I discovered the 
OSSL_PKEY_BN macros. I discovered them later and then used them (in the 
rsa and dsa modules). If you'd like, I'll fix the ossl_pkey_dh.c file 
and resubmit the patch. Let me know.

Hmm. I tried all that, and it wouldn't give me the answer that the ssh 
server expected. Using Cipher#crypt, however, did (and it should, since 
it is modeled from the OpenSSH code).

I'm refactoring all of the (Net::SSH) code now, to make it more robust. 
I'm hoping to have something worthwhile to report in a few weeks.

Thanks!
