If you want to overwrite, why not just rm the key first?

The patch should prevent the program from asking in every situation.
If there is an immutable key file, the rm does not delete it, and the
ssh-keygen hang. Of course the output of rm can be tested but this make
the whole thing complicate. The correct way is to make option(s) for
overwriting(keeping) the file w/o asking the user.
