My bad/you're right.  I went back an checked an it's all on one line;
I've got three keys on three lines.

Hmm... I don't get that.  It looks wrong.  Google it and you find:

<quote>
10.7 ?Internal error?, ?Internal fault?, ?Assertion failed?

Any error beginning with the word ?Internal? should never occur. If it
does, there is a bug in PuTTY by definition; please see appendix B and
report it to us.

Similarly, any error message starting with ?Assertion failed? is a bug
in PuTTY. Please report it to us, and include the exact text from the
error message box.

Also: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist/sshcrcda-assertion-failed.html

What's the PuTTY version do you have?  I have PuTTY v0.60 and it works.

Try to generate a new pair of ssh keys and retry.

If you want to, you can send me a pair of private/public keys that you
generate and I can try it on my r-forge account.
