I have

UsePAM no

in my sshd config. Thanks Glenn.

Before reporting this issue I found and skimmed over that one. What a
mess.

My main concern about this is to ensure that any change that breaks
functionality goes with prominent notes about the change and how to
adapt to it. Showing just the standard error message in the output of
emacsclient when it knows the probable origin of the problem is not user
friendly. We must give a proper note about the existence of new modes of
failure and explain (or at least hint) how to deal with them.
