Builds and runs fine on Cygwin 1.7.  Since I won't support any new
OpenSSH package for Cygwin 1.5, and since Cygwin 1.7 will stop
supporting Windows 9x, I'm wondering if it's ok to strip all Windows 9x
support, as well as the *really* old Cygwin version considerations from
OpenSSH at this point.  It will strip some extra Cygwin-only code from
portable SSH.  Or, maybe we should do that right after the 5.2p1 release?
