Understand your concerns, but still think that this symlink is necesary.

Please note, that *all* openssh-clients at the whole Planet use hardcoded 
path to xauth, and only Fedora Core switches to the modular X. Can we 
enforce all of 'em to use new, patched ssh-client? Even theoretically?

And one more: of course end-users never found this bug (and some others, 
no doubts), if we allow such workaround, so what? That's a good news for 
average Joe, that he will never discovers such issue using its good old 
software.
