Patch from libssh 0.6, with bind.c hunk adjusted for 0.5.5.

Subject: security: fix for vulnerability CVE-2014-0017

When accepting a new connection, a forking server based on libssh forks
and the child process handles the request. The RAND_bytes() function of
openssl doesn't reset its state after the fork, but simply adds the
current process id (getpid) to the PRNG state, which is not guaranteed
to be unique.
This can cause several children to end up with same PRNG state which is
a security issue.
