Comment (by artkiver):

 If I run the following on the contents of the tarball manually without the
 Portfile:

 {{{
 ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-ssl-dir=/opt/local
 --sysconfdir=/opt/local/etc/ssh --with-privsep-path=/var/empty --with-
 md5-passwords --with-pid-dir=/opt/local/var/run --with-pam
 --mandir=/opt/local/share/man --with-zlib=/opt/local --without-kerberos5
 --with-libedit --with-pie --without-xauth --without-ldns --with-audit=bsm
 --with-keychain=apple
 }}}

 Then run make, I will end up with an ssh binary which yields the
 following:

 {{{
  ssh -V
 OpenSSH_9.3p1-snap20230803, LibreSSL 3.8.0
 }}}

 From what I was able to discern, I think maybe there's something going
 amiss with my WIP testing Portfile and the naming/version conventions of
 the snapshot? Basically this:

 {{{
 Executing:  cd
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_github
 .com_macports_macports-ports_net_openssh/openssh/work/openssh-
 SNAP-20230803" && /usr/bin/patch -p0 -p1 <
 '/opt/local/var/macports/sources/github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/net/openssh/files/agent.patch'
 }}}

 I think fails because:

 {{{
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_github
 .com_macports_macports-ports_net_openssh/openssh/work/openssh-
 SNAP-20230803
 }}}

 is empty

 It's populating:

 {{{
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_github
 .com_macports_macports-ports_net_openssh/openssh/work/openssh/
 }}}

 So, it's trying to apply the patches to files which aren't in the path?

 Meanwhile, if I manually decompress the tarball to the path which it is
 trying, it seems to get a bit further but then error out as follows:

 {{{

 }}}

 I am guessing, all of this will be a non issue when 9.4 is actually
 released, and I am kind of chasing my tail with a prematurely modified
 Portfile and causing problems where there aren't any?
