[Bug 505278] Re: ssh-add -D deleting all identities does not work. Also, why are all identities auto-added?

What is returned by `ssh-add -l' is a list of keys which have
corresponding .pub files.

I tried to connect to server H with some key K, and gave my password to a graphical ssh-askpass.
Then it was possible to connect again without a password, as intended.
After `ssh-add -d K', key K still appears in the list returned by ssh-add -l.
But if I try to ssh again into H, ssh-askpass pops up.
So in this test, it seems that after `ssh-add -d K' the private key material is not accessible anymore,
which is what we want.
(This behavior may have been different when this bug was opened).
