14 Apparently the signal is being handled by cygwin on the client side (not a gentoo server problem). Something must have changed in your cygwin evironment. A quick search shows that this is a common problem: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Killed+by+signal+2%22+cygwin+ssh. In the first search result it suggested to "Switch off ForwardX11 in your .ssh/config".
