If you don't mind compiling a couple of other packages, I'd suggest using
OpenSSH; in addition to having a non-stupid license, it's also being
actively developed, and has included PAM support since way-back-when, so
you can do all sorts of useful/interesting PAM-things.

Current version for linux is 2.2.1p4, and support SSH1/2 with all the
requisite goodies.

Later,
Paul
