If you turn off privilege separation, just be warned you turned off a
major security feature in sshd. Without privilege separation much of
sshd must be run mostly as root, and any security flaws can grant an
attacker root access.
Damien Miller gave a talk at LCA2008 and then LUV on the security
features of openssh, unfortunately it didn't get recorded :-(.
