By running "ssh-add" after "ssh-agent bash"?

BTW, I use this in my .tcshrc so that I always have an ssh-agent
running:

        if (! $?SSH_AUTH_SOCK) then
                rm -f /tmp/ssh_agent.* >&/dev/null
                exec ssh-agent tcsh
        endif

It is a bit dangerous, because the name of that environment variable has
already changed once, which resulted in an endless loop, but I still
like it :-)
