That sounds like a problem with whatever version of XP you have, or something about the parameters that XP starts the service with. Have you tried to uninstall sshd as a service, and install it with srvany or firedaemon? It may be worth a try, to narrow down the problem to just being how XP is starting the service (and rule out cygrunsrv).
