RSA Authentication with CVSNT

I am wondering if the problem in the following thread was ever resolved:

http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2001-December/000202.html

To sum up the problem in as few words as possible:
A CVSNT server running on windows using RSA authentication via Cygwin's 
OpenSSH server produces the following log entries when a checkin is made:
date 2001.12.06.06.14.02; author SYSTEM; state Exp;
instead of
date 2001.12.06.06.14.02; author cvsuser; state Exp;

If password authentication is used, this problem doesn't show up.  I'm also 
under the understanding that VanDyke's SSH server does not have this 
problem, but it is a costly solution.

According to the thread (back in December of 2001), it looks like Corinna 
had put some effort into trying to resolve this.  Did anything ever come of 
this?  I would appreciate any info on this subject, as I am interested in 
using this authentication method for CVSNT.

Thanks
