I'm using 5.0p1 (Yeah, yeah. I know.). For various reasons, I am unable
to upgrade to the latest and greatest, which probably would solve my
problem.

Here's my question.

When doing an scp from remote to local (e.g.: scp user@host:remote
localfile), is there any way to specify the path to the remote scp? Or
do I have to patch the code to allow it?

I believe you are looking for:

-S program
Name of program to use for the encrypted connection.
The program
must understand ssh(1) options.

This has existed since for a long time.

e.g.

scp -S /path/to/scp remote:file localname
