Is your ssh setuid root? Is UsePrivilegedPort set?

     UsePrivilegedPort
             Specifies whether to use a privileged port for outgoing connec-
             tions.  The argument must be ``yes'' or ``no''.  The default is
             ``no''.  If set to ``yes'' ssh must be setuid root.  Note that
             this option must be set to ``yes'' if RhostsAuthentication and
             RhostsRSAAuthentication authentications are needed with older
             servers.
