Thanks for the feedback.

I don't think installing software that the user doesn't
want/need is a good thing. I could add further install
targets to choose which sort you use:

make install_select
make install_fork

but I wouldn't want to impose installing both versions when
most people will only want one.

Default is /usr/local/sbin rather than /sbin.

I don't think I agree with your reasonning: */sbin is full
of programs that normal users can run (e.g. netstat,
ifconfig, ...) but which are intended for administration. I
don't think normal users would have a use case for sslh, as
the standard use is to put it behind port 443 which only
root can do.

I'll add the HTTP probe we talked about yesterday on the
list and release 1.11, so that should be within a week,
depending on weather :)
