Eventually, the reason why key based ssh logins hadn't worked was
simple.  The problem has been, thinking about it.

~/.ssh/authorized_keys must not be group writable.

Learned about `ssh -v' for debugging,  but  it  didn't  list  the
problem.   I  wonder  how one can get informed about this problem
without having access to the sshd logs  (which  might  include  a
message about it).

The concept of refusing to work as long as  the  permissions  are
unsafe is good, but the reasons should be propagated well.
