X-Operating-System:	Linux monster 2.2.18-crypt

tried several variations, no dice.  Even tried:

#!/bin/perl

close(STDIN);
close(STDERR);
open(STDOUT,">~/.sshagent");
system("ssh-agent");
close(STDOUT);

That was close.  Perhaps i'm getty a ctty effect, and should try
opening .sshagent with a diff filehandle before I close STDOUT.

Hmmm.
