Just for the records: even though there were no ssh complaints, 
upgrading the ssh version on the client fixed the problem. 
Or perhaps I should, more accurately, say: since the ssh version was
updated, the problems are gone. I still have no explanation, but as 
long as everything works I don't neccessarily need one...
