Comment (by RobK88):

 Yes,  `openssl3 @3.2.0_0` breaks many ports (including `ntp`, `git` and
 `openssh`) due to insufficient entropy when `openssl3` was built.  I
 reported this earlier.

 See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/68769
 and
 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/68763

 When you try to build `openssh` on Lion, the error is more apparennt:

 {{{
 configure: error: OpenSSH has no source of random numbers. Please
 configure OpenSSL with an entropy source or re-run configure using one of
 the --with-prngd-port or --with-prngd-socket options
