The canonical way would be to look for certain popular ssh
implementations in the registry about their install location. But
accessing the registry requires the win32 python extensions, which are
optional as well.

And then the binary might not even be named ssh, for example with the
popular PuTTY package the command line remote exec utility is named
plink.exe.
