Building the Open SSH package from source

[Sorin Adrian Savu <sorin@itguy.ro>]

Hello!

I've been trying to build openssh-7.1p2-1.src using cyport. After
several iterations due missing packages, I ended up with these errors
after "cygport --debug openssh.cygport compile" and I have no idea how
to proceed:

Can anyone suggest how to approach these ?
