There is a patch in software.srparish.net--2003tla/tla--devo--1.0 which
passes ssh the '-2' flag to enforce the use of only ssh version 2.

Yes, that seems to solve the problem.

However, my original bug report still stands: documenting this (even as simply as a "Make sure your ssh is connecting with protocol version 2" in the error output) would help a lot.

This is probably due to your ssh configuration.
Have a look at these posts to the mailing list:

Running a sftp command (any other one using sftp as well)
produces the following output. What's going on?

$ tla make-archive --mirror lukka@iki.fi--2003-test2 sftp://lukka@himalia.it.jyu.fi/testarch2

usage: sftp [-vC1] [-b batchfile] [-o option] [-s subsystem|path] [-B buffer_size]
[-F config] [-P direct server path] [-S program]
[user@]host[:file [file]]
Error reading from serve
