Because you're execing ssh-agent you're no longer going through the bash
shutdown stuff when you log off.

Instead of execing bash eval for ssh-agent. Kevin Buettner suggested that
to me sometime ago and it rocks. Also see his find-agent that he posted a
link to.

His previous post shows how to eval for both ssh-agent and his find-agent.

I believe he runs true ssh because his find-agent doesn't work for me. I
fixed it, however :). The /tmp files he's grepping for have a different
format under OpenSSH. Easy fix.
