Well, Kirk, you've answered my question. Indeed, the z/OS OpenSSH User's Guide
Version 2 Release 2 SC27-6806-00 says:
scp assumes that files are text. Files copied between EBCDIC and ASCII
platforms are converted.
OpenSSH scp for the entire rest of the computing universe assumes all transfers are binary, and IBM has recoded it to
assume everything is text.
