Redundant Syslog Messages from OpenSSHD

Subject: Redundant Syslog Messages from OpenSSHD

Ok,
So when a client authenticates to sshd (the server is running OpenSSH
4.3 on OpenBSD 3.8), I'm noticing that two messages get stuck in my logs
that differ only by pid.
For example:

Jun  4 13:59:56 somehost sshd[18613]: Accepted publickey for someuser
from 192.168.4.142 port 33295 ssh2
Jun  4 13:59:56 somehost sshd[10742]: Accepted publickey for someuser
from 192.168.4.142 port 33295 ssh2

They're otherwise identical, and ipso facto redundant. I know I could
work around these redundant messages, but is it possible to suppress
their output?

Cheers,
-Jesse Kempf
