Thank you for your reply.

No, I have no "special non-ASCII characters" in the passwords.
Anyway, as I stated in the OP, it also fails on sites where I use
SSH Key-Based Authentication.

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Still fails after a reboot on the client end.
The other end involves various servers.

ssh, sftp, and sshfs all play nice from the command line.

I'll do a test that just occurred to me: I'll try sftp'ing into my own
workstation.

I'll be back in a while.
