For unrelated reasons, I will be debugging this thing remotely via
vnc. This makes he whole deal a lot more complex. But the thing is
that I won't mind a dirty solution -- is there a way to do this by
reducing security somehow? Perhaps there is a way to start sshd in a
different way? (After all, this thing *used* to work just fine with
an older cygwin installation...)
