Add re-exec for server
This allows ASLR to re-randomize the address
space for every connection, preventing some
vulnerabilities from being exploitable by
repeated probing.
Overhead (memory and time) is yet to be confirmed.
At present this is only enabled on Linux. Other BSD platforms
with fexecve() would probably also work though have not been tested.

Dropbear for Debian ------------------- This package will attempt to setup the Dropbear ssh server to listen on port 22. If the OpenSSH server package ("openssh-server") is installed, the file /etc/default/dropbear will be set up so that the server does not start by default. You can run Dropbear concurrently with OpenSSH 'sshd' by modifying /etc/default/dropbear so that "NO_START" is set to "0", and changing the port number that Dropbear runs on. Follow the instructions in the file. This package suggests you install the "openssh-client" package, which provides the "ssh" client program, as well as the "/usr/bin/scp" binary you will need to be able to retrieve files via SCP from a server running Dropbear.
