I read a post in the archive that has a similar problem with a ppc4xx
target.  The symptoms were very similar, I was able to ssh to it's own sshd
but I cannot ssh from an x86 Linux box.  It talks about recompiling openssl
as well.

So the next thing I did was an "openssl version -a", and lo and behold, an
old version of the library was there and it was compiled for linux-elf.  I
trashed the old gunk in the filesystem, compiled the openssl library with
"./Configure shared linux-ppc", and everything is happy again.

Thanks for your pointer, I really appreciated it.
