I just downloaded the latest non-commercial version from ssh.com.  It 
looks like keyboard-interactive is not available at all.  Perhaps they 
restrict this to the commercial versions?

Here's the (sanitized) log:
C:\>ssh2 -v noackjr at example.org
<snip>
debug: Ssh2Transport: My version: SSH-1.99-3.2.9 SSH Secure Shell 
Windows Client
debug: client supports 2 auth methods: 'publickey,password'
<snip>
debug: server offers auth methods 'publickey,keyboard-interactive'.
debug: Ssh2Common: DISCONNECT received: No further authentication 
methods available.
warning: Authentication failed.
Disconnected; no more authentication methods available (No further 
authentication methods available.).
