OK, I tried but makes no difference. With CKE=1,CKP=1 it just doesn't
work.

I have also tried a different mode (CKE=0,CKP=0) using a PLD to adapt
the signals between the SPI master and the PIC, and that one works
with and without SS control (and regardless of the value I put on the
RA5 bit).

But no way to make it work with CKE=1,CKP=1 :-//
