[...snip....] 1. ssh2 daemon has a ssh v1 compatibility mode that can be enabled. 2. there is no real intrinsic difference in running ssh v2 over v1; v2 just has tighter licensing requirements. v1 code has been pored over line by line after that bad scare (but later turned out to be unfound) around 1.2.25 and a break-in of a key site. Of course, neither helps much if a site has chosen to use v2 everywhere :-) That said, I'm not running a recent version of LinuxPPC so I can't really tell what exactly is broken at the moment.
