hmm. i don't see any "accept from unauthorized server" strings in
David's strace. did they appear in ssh-add or in ssh-agent output?
An strace sent to the list looks more like 'ssh-agent' isn't running
when ssh-add is started. David, can you check it? if it's up and
running, it'd also be useful to see if it listens to inbound
connections. You can use 'netstat -a' to list all LISTENing ports on
your host.
