    Read the source :-)

    In this case, type = -1 means that the file was not recognised as a
    public key. What were the debug lines preceding that one? They'll be
    from key_load_public and friends.

    Another wild guess: does OpenSSL's self tests (ie "make test") pass?

    FWIW 3.7.1p2 works with SSHv2 and pubkey auth on HP-UX 11.00 for me. I
    don't have access to a 10.x box.

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
