Hi all.

I've tarred up a Dropbear 0.45 release, it doesn't contain
many major fixes, just a few bug fixes which have been
mentioned on the list. Changelog follows:

- Makefile no longer appends 'static' to statically linked binaries

- Add optional SSH_ASKPASS support to the client

- Respect HOST_LOOKUP option

- Fix accidentally removed "return;" statement which was removed in 0.44
  (causing clients which sent an empty terminal-modes string to fail to
  connect - including pssh, ssh.com, danger hiptop). (patches
  independently from Paul Fox, David Horwitt and Sven-Ola Tuecke)

- Read "y/n" response for fingerprints from /dev/tty directly so that dbclient
  will work with scp.

Particular thanks to Paul Whittaker for the askpass support.

Matt
