That error tends to indicate that something has gone wrong
with calculation of the signature by the server. Did the
Dropbear server print anything interesting in the logs?
Most likely if the key itself has problems, Dropbear won't
even start.

What sort of platform are you compiling on? It's plausible
you could get that error if the crypto libraries are somehow
producing incorrect output, though it's hard to guess what
might be wrong without some more details (what sort of
compiler, platform, libc, etc).
