I do not know, why you want to start ssh-agent manualy, but I have a
Development-Station where on ALL releases (Woody, Sarge, Etch, Lenny
and Sid) the "ssh-agent" starts automaticaly.

I have NEVER started it by hand since it is started by
"/etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent" automaticaly.
Please look in

    man 5 Xsession.options

to solve this misbehaviour.
