"setuid xxxx: Permission denied" with new openssh

- Subject: "setuid xxxx: Permission denied" with new openssh
A recent upgarde of openssh has broken incoming ssh service. When I
debug the sshd, I see the error below in the Event Viewer (which is a
very inconvient way to view log files -- is there any way to get the
sshd service to put out to a file?)
My guess is that there is some file permissions problem, but even with
LogLevel DEBUG3, I cannot get sshd to tell me what file lacks the
proper permissions.
When I stop the service and run "sshd -d" from a bash shell (I am the
Administrator and only user of this machine; in /etc/passwd I have
userid 1006), I can ssh in to the machine normally.
Any advice will be appreciated.
openssh-3.4p1-4
Windows XP Home
I am *not* using privilege separation, but mostly default configuration of sshd
otherwise (just protocol 2, suppress motd, etc.)
The same version of openssh with the same sshd_config file works OK on
a different Win2k machine I have and use in a similar way. The file
permissions on particular files or directories may be different of course.
