These last two seem like the problem; I'm not sure how they could be
related to public-key authentication (although sshd is certainly very
confused one way or another). Could you run an sshd with the -ddd
command-line option (possibly on a separate port) and post the debug log
from that?
Does anyone on debian-hurd recognise this problem? Does it simply mean
that the tty translator is broken (perhaps by the previous tcgetattr
failure)?
