RFC 4432 (formerly draft-harris-ssh-rsa-kex) defines a means to use RSA key exchange in SSH-2 (similar to SSH-1's key exchange, but without the other disadvantages of SSH-1). This might be particularly suitable for slow client systems.

SGT, 2012-06-22: Perhaps this is as good a place as any to keep a list of known server-side implementations.
