That's from ssh 1.2.23. They're preparing for the apparently vaguely
imminent and slightly incompatible ssh 2.0 by installing everything
as foo1 (ssh1, sshd1, etc) and putting symlinks. And then presumably,
the version 2 versions will install as ssh2, sshd2, etc, and you can
decide whether you want the links to point to the 1 versions or the 2
versions.
