Probably.  At the very least, i'd recommend trying it yourself, twice:
once with 'ssh -A' to explicitly enable agent forwarding, and once with
plain 'ssh', to see if there's a difference.

Also, do 'ssh-agent -V' to make certain the ssh-agent on your PATH is
the one from 2.9p2.  You may also need to log out and log back in again
(or restart ssh-agent) in order to be certain you're running the newly
installed ssh-agent.
