Yep, that's it (AFAIK there's no good reason for doing this and I would consider
it pretty suspicious).

>From the chattr(1) man page:

       A file with the 'a' attribute set can only be open in append mode  for
       writing.    Only   the   superuser   or   a   process  possessing  the
       CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE capability can set or clear this attribute.

So you need to "chattr -ua sshd".  Anyway, this is a local configuration problem
not an OpenSSH problem so please close this bug.
