i've attempted to document this for the next release; you can use -s for
this:

$ sftp -1 jenny
Connecting to jenny...
bash: /usr/libexec/sftp-server: No such file or directory
Connection closed
$ sftp -s /opt/openssh-CVS/libexec/sftp-server -1 jenny
Connecting to jenny...

     -s subsystem | sftp_server
             Specifies the SSH2 subsystem or the path for an sftp server on
             the remote host.  A path is useful for using sftp over protocol
             version 1, or when the remote sshd does not have an sftp subsys-
             tem configured.
