I don't know what you're referring to.  Can you please point to the
thread in the cygwin ML archive(*)?  And, if I fixed it, how come that
you're still seeing it?

And if it's actually a generic problem, how come that neither Larry nor
I can reproduce it?  I tried with an ssh client from Cygwin against a
non-Cygwin sshd server, against a Windows sshd server using cyglsa, and
a Windows sshd server using the "passwordless w/ password"(**) method.
In all three cases I can't see this effect.  From my perspective it
looks like a local problem on your side.
