For what it's worth, I'm having the same problem.
Here's an excerpt, with IP addresses deleted:

debug2: callback done
debug1: channel 0: open confirm rwindow 0 rmax 32768
debug2: channel 0: rcvd adjust 131072
Fanfare!!!

debug1: channel_free: channel 0: client-session, nchannels 1

  #0 client-session (t4 r0 i0/0 o0/0 fd 4/5)

debug3: channel_close_fds: channel 0: r 4 w 5 e 6

debug1: Transferred: stdin 0, stdout 0, stderr 87 bytes in 17.5 seconds
debug1: Bytes per second: stdin 0.0, stdout 0.0, stderr 5.0
debug1: Exit status -1

I'm have two sshd servers running on separate Win2K boxes, but
the connection attempt above was to a (remote, dial-up) WinNT 4.0SP6
box running Cygwin 1.3.12 and OpenSSH_3.4p1.

My next *guess* is to regenerate my public/private RSA1 key pair,
even though they have been working well for me on the Win2K boxes
for many months.  The ssh -vvv log includes the message:

debug3: Not a RSA1 key file...

I had this working months ago, but stopped using it because of
the slow speed of the dialup.  That was with OpenSSH_3.3 (or older?)
and Cygwin 1.3.10 (I think).  I can't say if a bug has been
introduced that is WinNT specific.  It doesn't seem likely.
