However, the longer I think about it, the less I see the problem.  You
can run only one sshd service on port 22 anyway.  If you install 1803 on
a machine with Cygwin sshd service installed, the Microsoft service will
not override (which is rather courteous).  If you install a new machine,
Microsoft's sshd gets installed by default (nice), and if you want to
install Cygwin's sshd instead, you can simply remove the MSFT service
beforehand with `cygrunsrv -R sshd' (easy).
