Totally! broken sshd could cause non-trivial issues for a lot of people.
However, I can confirm that:
- prov-kickstart-c5.5-i386 : sshd tests PASS
- yum -y update : sshd tests PASS [1]
- yum install latest updates : sshd tests PASS
So, I'm quite keen on finding out what is it that is causing the breakage for you.

I am NOT rubbing this in, but I figured I'd let you know that I have 5 i386 machines, one x86_64...did a yum -y update...and all updated ssh and all related RPM's. And it's aall is working well here. I only slightly modified sshd_config in previous versions, and it didn't cause any problems with this update.
In my original post I pointed out that this problem occurred on just one server and that all the updates applied cleanly on the rest. I do not have an explanation for why this particular server choked on the sshd update, but it did.
Interestingly, although the package on that server is now an older one

yum check-update does not report that there is a more recent openssh available. Odd.
