Since 2.9 has many new parts, it's possible that it checks more
modes than before. Another interesting point is the setting in
/etc/sshd_config. It contains a "StrictModes" setting which you
could try to set to "no".

Even the LocalSystem (== SYSTEM) account?

If you installed it that way, it's running under LocalSystem.

I installed sshd under my own account as I had installed 2.5.2
before. I'm just using cygrunsrv now instead of SRVANY. I didn't
had to change any user or mode settings of my files. I installed
the service with:

  cygrunsrv -I "sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -d "CYGWIN sshd" -a -D -u corinna

My settings of the concerned files (on NTFS, using ntsec):

$ ls -ld $HOME
drwxr-xr-x  11 corinna  root        16384 May 16 21:53 /home/corinna

My /etc is on a FAT32 file system, so the below settings are
incorrect, but it doesn't matter:
$ ls -l /etc/ssh*
