Oh, I just executed now:
# mv /var/empty /var/empty-orig
# mkdir /var empty
# chmod 700 /var/empty
# chown SYSTEM /var/empty
and now sshd is starting fine!

But do you have any idea, what could be the reason?
On my two windows7 fresh installed machines the /var/empty looks like this:
drwxr-xr-x+ 1 cyg_server root 0 Feb 25 18:51 /var/empty/
And sshd is working fine neverthless. That's why I thought about 
possible windows8 specific problem...

Yes, I always did it in a shell window started by right click -> "run as 
admin". Without it I saw "permission denied" error message.

Thanks!
