The problem was simply a firewall that blocked priviledged source ports. The reason this happened only occasionally was that a) the firewall was being configured, b) I tried several times with non-suid-root ssh that did not use priviledged source ports (due to a bug in ssh-1.2.25 installation script, and since I had fetched from otherwhere an ssh executable in testing purposes that was not setuid.)
