    Revert "gnu: openssh: Remove empty /var/empty."
    
    Oh, hello, you must be new here:
    
      $ git show ba912479e8481d69b699ce348b35d5d70f0c9367
    
    That silly person really ought to have added a comment to the code,
    shouldn't they?  This reverts similar changes made in commit
    ec7bcdc35af17021a9dfd73ef49750d0ad82b989, and adds one.
