The problem persists, but adding
PasswordAuthentication yes
helps.

However, if this is a system user, then why won't PAM pick it up
automatically? And why will the box let me login with
ssh user at localhost


Seems like this just waits to bite people's asses (the box in question
stands 1m beside me, but I don't want to imagine what would happen if
it were on another continent...).
