I'm wrong again.

There is an easy solution to this problem.

  ln -s /path/to/sshd /path/to/your-favorite-ssh-service-name

OpenSSH's sshd uses the basename of argv[0] as the service name, as you
would know if you were to read the INSTALL file that accompanies
OpenSSH-3.5p1.

This comes from http://marc.info/?l=openssh-unix-dev&m=104871124912817&w=2
