The commit-set was updated with resolved issues reported by other users and made compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.0 to be able top build on my current machine. At this time, it is probably the only way how we can instruct OpenSSH to use only a specific key from the PKCS#11 module instead of sending all the keys to the server. Feel free to comment or propose improvements. It also opens a way for more improvements in the PKCS#11 support, which I am willing to help too, if there would be interest (ECDSA #2474).
