I assume you're basing your conclusion on the above information.

> In conclusion: 32bit OpenSSH is in Cygwin64, and 64bit OpenSSH is in Cygwin32.

You're mistaken.  SysWOW64 is what 64-bit Windows uses to run 32-bit
executables.  If you 'ldd' other Cygwin 32-bit executables, you'll see the
same thing.  This is what's expected for any 32-bit Windows executable
actually.
