Did you have any configure flags or anything else in the environment?  I
just updated a win10 VM to the current Cygwin (OpenSSL 1.1.1l  24 Aug 2021)
and ran

$ git clone https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git && cd openssh
&&
autoreconf && ./configure && make t-exec LTESTS=hostkey-agent

which passed (with the TEST_SSH_UNSAFE_PERMISSIONS warning).  Repeating
with TEST_SSH_UNSAFE_PERMISSIONS=1 removed the warning, but both passed
regardless.  I don't think I have anything special in my build environment.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.

Yes, I used the following flags:

  --with-kerberos5 
  --with-libedit
  --with-xauth=/usr/bin/xauth
  --enable-etc-default-login

I just noticed that these are not exactly the flags used to create the
distro OpenSSH package.  Apparently I used an older configure flag
set. The distro package uses (apart from certain installation paths)

  --with-kerberos5=/usr
  --with-libedit
  --with-xauth=/usr/bin/xauth
  --disable-strip
  --without-hardening
  --with-security-key-builtin

Let me try again with a complete distro build...
