Why would you want to do that ... ?  It might help in getting useful
responses if you described what you were hoping to accomplish by
replacing that component.

For what it's worth, the ssh that comes with OpenIndiana is well
integrated with the existing OS features and performs decently.  You may
end up replicating the hard work the Sun ssh team did getting it integrated.
