Clue stick found. The SSH init script has the following line:
test -f /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run && exit 0
Guess which file existed? Yes, that's right /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run.
Deleting this file got everything going smoothly. I guess I must have
specified SSH not run on startup during the initial installation.
Oh well, live and learn (and now sleep).
