  Added files:
    security/ssh/patches patch-ao 
  Log:
  Prevent this server error message:
  
      fatal: Local: Agent socket bind failed: Address already in use
  
  It would happen when the server tried to create the Unix domain
  socket "/tmp/ssh-username/agent-socket-123", if the file already
  existed.  It could already exist if it happened to be left over from
  a system crash.  This patch unlinks the file before attempting the
  bind operation.
  
  I will send this patch to ssh-bugs@cs.hut.fi too.
