I am under the impression that you compiled your own sshd.  Is that true?
If so, I think you have to enable tcp wrapper support for it to work
correctly.  Then, even though it doesn't run from inetd, you would need a
line in /etc/hosts.allow like:
sshd: all
to make it work.  I never compiled my own sshd.  I've always used the one
that came with the distribution and had to use hosts.allow to enable it as
I have all services denied by default.
