I am looking for a solution to a aimiliar problem the last week.
In my case I found and solve two mistakes:

1) usernames in v1.5 are case insensitive but not in v1.7.5. e.g. ssh
Meyer@cygwinhost is not the same as ssh meyer@cygwinhost

2) sshd_config:
"AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys" is not the same
as "#AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys".
I have to remark the line in v1.7.5 but not in v1.5.
