I don't have the libssh2 source, but it seems another similar patch is
necessary. It got past the place where it crashed the last time, but
now it's crashing further down userauth.c.

Perhaps you could see if there's another call to LIBSSH2_ALLOC() that
you can skip if the second argument is 0 like Daniel did in the patch.
