The patches above have unclear upstream status; could you annotate the
files with the information? They should be submitted upstream for
consideration. For upstream to consider your last patch though, you'd
want to have the opensshlib patch configurable via a configure.ac check
or option. It could for example check for a system-provided opensshlib
and use this, else fall-back to the bundled library build that it
currently does.

To be more accurate, I'd use "The @command{ncrack} command is a tool for
[...]".
Otherwise, LGTM.
