Right.  But what exactly are the pits one could fall into, should one
follow the advice?

   Ciphers aes128-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour256,arcfour,aes128-cbc,aes256-cbc

How would one go about asking the ssh-server something like:

  What ciphers are you capable of?

from a batch job?
The answer would enable the admin to assert if interoperability allows for
such a measure.
