Thank you Corinna for your quick response.  I just saw that OpenSSH has 
release 3.81pl on April 19, but unfortunately, it didn't include the 
new patch.  Can you please show me tips/website onto how I could 
compile the new modified bsd-cygwin_util.c to be used by cygwin?

Thanks in advance,
Peter
