Corinna Vinschen made it pretty clear at the start of the
announcement of the availability of OpenSSH 3.3p1-1 that
the Cygwin version would NOT support privilege separation:
> This release introduces privilege separation (see official release
> message below) as default setting. Since privilege separation
requires

sendmsg(2)/recvmsg(2),
> this doesn't work in current Cygwin releases. However, in Cygwin the
> /etc/sshd_config file must contain the following line to let sshd
work:
