Printing Wrong version Number when i run ssh -V - ssh

Question

I am upgrading the openssl & openssh versions for QNX platform, from openssl 1.0.0e to 1.0.1g & openssh-5.6p1 to openssh-6.6p1
So using my linux machine I am cross compiling to generate binaries for QNX.
After doing all the steps mentioned below when i run ./ssh -V i am getting this output
OpenSSH_6.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
But I used openssl 1.0.1g to generate ssh binaries.
Can any one tell me from where i am getting the version wrong?
Steps:
Downloaded openssl-1.0.1g.tar.gz & openssh-6.6p1.tar.gz and then untar it.
2. cd openssl-1.0.1g & run this config command
CC=qcc CXX=qcc AR=nto${I_CPU}-ar LD=qcc RANLIB=nto${I_CPU}-ranlib CFLAGS+="-Vgcc_nto${I_CPU} -fPIC -DPIC" LDFLAGS+="-Vgcc_nto${I_CPU} -shared" ./Configure QNX6-i386 -shared --prefix=/home/vamsi/build_ppc --openssldir=/home/vamsi/build_ppc/openssl_dir
Make clean
Make
Make install
cd openssh-6.6p1 & run this config command
CC=qcc CFLAGS="-Vgcc_nto${I_CPUX} -L/home/vamsi/build_ppc/lib" AR=nto${I_CPUX}-ar LD=qcc LDFLAGS="-Vgcc_nto${I_CPUX} -L/home/vamsi/build_ppc/lib" CXX=qcc CPPFLAGS+="-DMISSING_HOWMANY -DMISSING_NFDBITS -DMISSING_NFDMASK" ./configure --disable-lastlog --host=ppcbe --with-ssl-dir=/home/vamsi/build_ppc/openssl_dir --prefix=/home/vamsi/build_ppc --disable-etc-default-login
make clean
make
After these steps i copied generated ssh binary file into target machine and tried to run ./ssh -V
Also when i copied openssl Binary to target QNX machine and tried to execute this command
./openssl
It is giving this error
./openssl[1]: syntax error: '(' unexpected
Note : I am not installing ssh in the target machine but i just want new version ssh binaries so i am running ./ssh -V instead of ssh -V
I am able to successfully connect to any address using this ssh (generated binary).
and in making this Binary i am getting this warning
skipping incompatible /home/vamsi/build_ppc/lib/libcrypto.a when searching for -lcrypto
Has this warning got anything to do with the problem i am facing ??
I tried using openssl version 1.0.0l but still the output of ssh -v is showing as
OpenSSH_6.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

This and the comments you've posted on your other question about the output of ldd: "It is taking the previous libraries instead of newly generated ones in creating the binaries." seem to suggest you have only copied these two executable files, but not the libraries you've compiled.
You don't need the openssl command to use ssh, but you'll need the OpenSSL libraries (libssl.something.so).
If you want to test this in a local directory instead of overwriting your system's libraries (which I'd recommend, since you don't seem quite sure how this all works), consider using LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the path where you've installed those libraries.
In general, it would be a good idea to read about LD_LIBRARY_PATH. On Linux, I'd also look at using ldconfig, but I'm not sure if there's an equivalent on QNX.
