I contacted OpenSSH folks to ask them if it was possible to change the
name of their functions, but they answered me that libssh is an internal
library and should not be used elsewhere.

I don't know why lukemftpd uses it, I suppose the author had good
reasons.  I Cc'd him in case he has time to enlighten me on this point.
