I restarted it without -f, and sshd stayed up for about 6 days.
Unfortunately when I look at the log file its mtime is about 6 days
ago.. so I doubt very much it has anything useful in it.

I'll look into running another sshd on a higher port for my own
needs and strace one on port 22.  The dictionary attacks should
still trigger this eventually.

Cheers,
Andy
