Yes, you hinted at that it might not be, but I didn't know whether these
keys are left-overs from by-gone versions, or derived from some other
setting, or whatnot, so not knowing whether I could delete them I
thought I might as well adapt them to reflect the new values,

To be complete on this issue and include one detail I omitted from my
list: Explorer failed to copy some files (SSH keys), which belonged to
the user NT-AUTORITÄT\SYSTEM and could not be read by my admin user, so
I had to do the following:

  subinacl /file C:\cygwin\etc\ssh* /setowner=michael
  subinacl /file C:\cygwin\etc\ssh*key /grant=michael=R

(This is XP Home, which does not come with the real security tab in
Explorer, so you have to resort to supplementary tools.)
