My authorized_keys file and my id_rsa file are ok.
I put the same setup of those files on different HPUX and Linux machines.
Even when I ssh to myself on my localhost it does not work on HPUX but it
works on Linux.
When I switched back to openssh 3.6.1p1 it also worked on HPUX.
This there must be something with the ssh client on 3.7.1p2.
Maybe it needs a different make or some defaults in the config did change
and must be explicitly enabled as compared to 3.6.1p1.
