I don't want to auto-enable that for everyone, because gpg's ssh-agent
support doesn't match the workflow for openssh's ssh-agent support and
not everyone likes the different workflow (i personally prefer
ssh-agent's workflow, for example).
That said, i do want to make this work for folks who do prefer gpg-agent's
ssh-agent workflow, so thanks for bringing this up.
I'm not convinced that setting SSH_AGENT_PID actually matters in
practice, so i think we could get away with just setting
SSH_AUTH_SOCKET.
Does the attached patch work for you? If so, i'll roll up a new
version with the patch.
