This is a call to the Win32 API call NetUserGetGroups creating an
exception due to an "access denied".  The difference between 32 and 64
bit is probably a result of the differences in exception handling, and
given that an ExceptionCode 5 will be ignored by Cygwin's exception
handler, it's probably the next handler in the chain.

Are you running sshd under a local cyg_server account or under a domain
cyg_server account?  Is it possible that this is a local cyg_server
account, and as a non-domain account actually gets an "access denied"
when trying to request AD user information?

If your cyg_server is a local account I'd suggest to try with an
AD account per https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.sshd-in-domain

Other than that I have a funny idea how to workaround this problem from
inside Cygwin.  If you want to give it a try, I'll send you a pointer
to a 32 bit DLL via PM.
