This patch against OpenSSH 3.2.3p1 implements an ssh-agent authentication
retry mechanism which is useful when starting many ssh clients in a short
period of time. The number of retries and the maximum delay between retries is
runtime-configurable using
AuthMaxRetries <integer>
AuthRetryDelay <seconds>
The patch is available at:

While I have no hopes of this being merged into the main OpenSSH distribution,
perhaps other people may find it useful. Comments welcome.
