In working with the OP off-list, he discovered that the SSH private key
had been renamed on the client side, causing the publickey
authentication to fail unexpectedly.  Using verbose client logging (e.g.
`sftp -vvv ...`) revealed the issue.  Once that was corrected, publickey
authentication using proftpd+mod_sftp worked as expected.

Cheers,
