Please ignore my previous email. The problem was I had a typo in a filename.
You'd think if it tries downloading a file that doesn't exist it would
return some more meaningful error, such as "file not found". Instead it
gives me an SFTP protocol error and a message from the server: "Internal
server error".
Sorry for the false alarm.
