Perhaps I'm misreading Max's intent but I believe he's suggesting that there is more to gain by understanding, categorizing, and finding the solution to users' problems with Cygwin's OpenSSH installation than in trying to generate a different, incompatible installation. Wouldn't at least some of what you've learned about creating your OpenSSH version based on Cygwin be helpful in making the Cygwin installation simpler? Is there a reason not to pursue this goal?
