OK, two other things (increasingly bizarre) occur to me; after that, I'm
stumped:

1. tcp wrappers or similar on your vnc?
2. The "localhost" is (as I recall) resolved on the putty side and the
   IP to connect to sent to the sshd. Does localhost resolve to anything
   other than 127.0.0.1 on your windows machine?
