I should have said I did exactly _no_ group/permission by-hand

installed cygwin, cygrunsrv and openssh all as part of my initial
install. I can't immediately detect any sign of what initialisations
ran in what order -- /etc/sshd_config was built about an hour after

I should have said, I've had those tools installed with my original
install of cygwin, but I just never activated them until today. As far
as creating a group "root", I have never seen cygwin do that
automagically. New thing?
No. That's a message from the OpenSSH source that really isn't right
for Cygwin. When you see 'root', think the user the 'sshd' server
runs under (i.e. 'cyg-server' if the default is used) for Cygwin.
