Yes.  As far as I know, everything is configured to use privilege 
separation.  But the fact that 3.9p1-1 worked for me without adding the 
-r switch made me wonder whether sshd was really doing privilege 
separation.  Is there any debugging output that indicates privsep is in 
use?  Can I tell using ps?  Is there any way to tell for sure that it is 
being used?
