Title:
  ssh-add asks about passphrases for keys already unlocked in the
  keychain

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  In the below example, on the second invocation of ssh-add I should not
  be prompted to enter the passphrase again after I successfully entered
  it on the first instance.  This used to work fine in trusty i386
  setup.

  $ keychain && ssh-add

   * keychain 2.8.2 ~ http://www.funtoo.org
   * Starting ssh-agent...

  Enter passphrase for /home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa:
  Identity added: /home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa)
  Enter passphrase for /home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa:
  Identity added: /home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa (/home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa)

  $ keychain && ssh-add

   * keychain 2.8.2 ~ http://www.funtoo.org
   * Found existing ssh-agent: 25744

  Enter passphrase for /home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa:
  Identity added: /home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/rolf/.ssh/id_rsa)
  Enter passphrase for /home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa:
  Identity added: /home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa (/home/rolf/.ssh/id_dsa)
