I hope, you got that mail, but I just got news :)
It seems, the motd is only not printed for root (with or without
pubkey authentication):
holbe@darkside:/home/holbe% ssh localhost -l root

root@darkside:~# logout
Connection to localhost closed.
holbe@darkside:/home/holbe% ssh localhost

Maybe this helps (to reproduce it).
I have not configured anything special for root, and
with earlier versions, motd was printed for root too.
Maybe it has something to do with things that arent
executed especially for root.

Mario
