Please do an strace on the ssh-agent to find out why it dies:

@reboot strace -ttTffo st ssh-agent vncserver :42
@reboot sleep 3; strace -ttTffo st ssh-agent vncserver :43

Keep the sessions short or the output files get really large; perhaps you can 
just wait until the process dies and then kill all of the remaining processes.
