Wrong permissions for $HOME

Hi,

today me and a friend of mine spent several hours figuring out why ssh
still asked for a password after we set up public key authentication.
We have tried to understand the problem by reading 'ssh -vvv ...', but
unfortunately the output was not useful. In the end of the day we have
found out that sshd actually was logging this problem.... So that's
for the context.

Now, can you please add some debugging information to ssh, so that the
user is able to understand the problem by reading ssh -vvv which will
be much mor helpful in comparison to sshd logging. Is there any reason
you haven't done so already?

Thanks
Roman
