This gave me the clue to work out the answer to bug 79106.

It seems that you need to have libpam0g-dev installed when you
build ssh, and then it correctly links in the PAM support.
Once this is done sshd again accepts connections using password
authentication.

So I guess that would be a missing build-depend somewhere ???
