Thanks for the report.

Does it repeatedly end at the same point?

I'd like you to try to build an example for libssh2 and do a "raw" SFTP
transfer using such a build to see if you get the problem then as well, as
curl is relying purely on libssh2 for the underlying SFTP protocol stuff.
Also, there has been 3 releases of libssh2 since the version you're using
and especially the 1.4.2 version contains a lot of SFTP fixes that may (or
may not) be relevant and possibly fix flaws you experience.

When it stops the transfer prematurely, doesn't it give any error?

You have a weird mismatch with a curl 7.28.1 but an older libcurl. That
looks like a funny install - possibly a later libcurl version could change
something.
