     [ssh-keygen.1 ssh-keygen.c]
     Add -A option.  For each of the key types (rsa1, rsa, dsa and ecdsa)
     for which host keys do not exist, generate the host keys with the
     default key file path, an empty passphrase, default bits for the key
     type, and default comment.  This will be used by /etc/rc to generate
     new host keys.  Idea from deraadt.
