Workaround succeeded using an earlier version's ssh-keygen.exe:

old $ ls -l ssh-keygen.exe
-rwxr-xr-x 1 gislab None 168462 Jun  5 08:19 ssh-keygen.exe
old $ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 ACSV-OLNFLEXLM1 1.7.16(0.262/5/3) 2012-07-20 22:55 i686 
Cygwin

which appeared to be the same as the version that failed, according to uname:

new $ ls -l 120903-ssh-keygen.exe 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 gislab None 170013 Sep  3 04:37 120903-ssh-keygen.exe

new $ ls -l ssh-keygen.exe 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 gislab None 168462 Sep 27 12:43 ssh-keygen.exe

new $ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 ACPC-OLN0521-18 1.7.16(0.262/5/3) 2012-07-20 22:55 i686 
Cygwin

So I'm a bit puzzled where the 1551B change came from, since this is a fresh 
download from mirrors.pair.com.

I picked up source from openssh.org and couldn't see any obvious recent changes 
in ssh-keygen.c.   Obviously there's more to it than that, but I don't have time 
to dig further.
