Thanks -- applied against 4.3p2 and tested : it does work as
expected, i.e. sets DISPLAY according to xauth choices, and therefore
does solve the forwarding problem :-)

It seems this breaks something, however, as regression tests are
failing while testing the agent :

run test agent.sh ...
ssh-add -l via agent fwd proto 1 failed (exit code 0)
agent fwd proto 1 failed (exit code 0)
ssh-add -l via agent fwd proto 2 failed (exit code 0)
agent fwd proto 2 failed (exit code 0)
failed simple agent test
gmake[1]: *** [t-exec] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/env/export/c/fc1d67/proj18/local_src/security/openssh/openssh-4.3p2-darren1/regress'
gmake: *** [tests] Error 2

However, I'm not sure this is specific to the patch, and I'm recompiling
a vanilla 4.3p2 right now to check this. Regression tests for 4.2p1 and
20060208 ran fine on this same machine (Tru64 5.1A).
