AIX and Secure Shell

I just installed 5.3 TL0 on a B50 server. I need to get ssh installed. I tried the links at http://sourceforge.net/projects/openssh-aix]

I downloaded openssh_5.2p1_aix53.tar and openssh-4.5_srcpatch.tar.

The installation failed. The notes say that this was compiled for TL 8, and mine is TL0.

The failure is:

Code:

MISSING REQUISITES:  The following filesets are required by one or more 
  of the selected filesets listed above.  They are not currently installed 
  and could not be found on the installation media. 
 
    openssl.base 0.9.8.1100                   # Fileset Update 
 
  << End of Failure Section >>

I can see several courses of action here.
1) I can upgrade the system to TL8, but I do not have an account with IBM. Can I get the upgrades without having a service contract?
2) I can install the openssl.base 0.9.8.1100 fileset, but Google can't find it. Can anyone point me to the correct resource?
3) I can download and install the Gnu compiler (gcc) and then the install OpenSSH from source code. This is a PITA but I'll do it if I have to.

Can anyone offer some clues?

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris  invokes  the  Solaris  Install  program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       256 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       512 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       tures available.
