[Bug 920636] [NEW] Clearing up language in man page of ssh-keygen

[Bosse Klykken]

Public bug reported:

The man page of ssh-keygen states that "if the passphrase is lost or
forgotten, a new key must be generated and copied to the corresponding
public key to other machines."

This seems to be a wording snafu. I've attached a small diff to attempt
a fix so that the meaning becomes more clear.
