ssh-agent doesn't work with eval

[S Reed]

ssh-agent was working fine for me over a year ago. I am sorry I cannot 
tell you what version I was running then. I upgraded a few times since 
then (now running 1.5.22) and I started getting "Could not open a 
connection to your authentication agent." from ssh-add. I found that if 
I call ssh-agent on the command line and then issue the set and export 
commands myself, then ssh-add works fine. It's just when I use "eval 
`ssh-agent`" that ssh-add fails. With "eval `ssh-agent`" the env vars 
are fine, the socket file is in /tmp, the agent process is running, 
SSH_AUTH_SOCK is set and exported - basically it all looks like it 
should work - but ssh-add does not work. If anyone can explain this or 
at least tell me how to fix it, I would greatly appreciate it.
