Yes: you cannot mix Cygwin and MinGW/MSVC libraries.  If you want to
build a Cygwin SSH with Kerberos5 support, you need a *Cygwin* Kerberos5
implementation, which in Ports is provided by Heimdal (libkrb5-devel).

As I mentioned in my previous message, you need to install
libcom_err-devel from the Cygwin distribution to fix the error you
received when attempting this with libkrb5-devel.  I have built openssh
in the past and it *does* compile if done properly.
