|AFAICT, ProtocolKeepAlives is not mentioned in the manpage for ssh.
|So, this isn't a bug.
Indeed, it seems that it is not mentioned in the Cygwin ssh_config manpage.
However, that option should be supported according to the following
Corinna Vinschen mail:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-01/msg00323.html
Btw, the ProtocolKeepAlives is a must for using ssh for port forwarding
behind a firewall that drops inactive connections.
