For reasons unknown to me, I had OpenSSL 1.1.1d on my machine, and it seems the first version to support that is 7.9. I used the openbsd mirror and it worked great after restarting the bash session and fixing ~/.ssh/config permissions :)

Leaving this for Google searches: Just installed SSH 7.9 in an Ubuntu Xenial / Linux Mint Sarah.
