I'm consistently getting a stack trace when attempting to run a command via
ssh, using a dsa key, on a remote Windows Server 2003 SP2 x64 that has Cygwin
sshd installed and configured. The error is occurring at the remote sshd
process:

I have updated the version of rebase to 4.0.1-1. The tarballs should be
available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly.
The following are the changes since the previous release:
* Change rebaseall to call rebase instead of ./rebase.
* Configure with --sysconfdir=/etc.
There is a problem with running rebase on my system. I go through the motions:
(1) invoke Windows Command Prompt, then
cd c:\Cygwin\bin
dash
PATH=.
rebaseall -v
This works fine until:
/usr/bin/cygAfterImage-0.dll: new base = 6ff7, new size = 7
/usr/X11R6/bin/cygXft-1.dll: new base = 6ff
Version 5.42-1 of smartmontools has been uploaded.
http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/
Changes include:
- smartctl option '-l devstat' (Device Statistics).
- smartctl option '-l ssd' (SSD endurance indicator).
- smartd logs identify information of each SCSI/SAS device.
- smartd resends warning
