Comment (by cal@…):

 I don't get that. The compilation fails in the linking stage of ssh-add
 with missing symbols:

 }}}
 but the linker command line correctly says `-L. -lssh` which has these
 symbols.

 The only reasonable explanation I have for this is that older versions of
 the OS X linker first tried finding dynamic libraries in '''all''' linker
 search paths before trying to link against static libraries. Do you have a
 file named `libssh.dylib` in any of `/opt/local/lib`, `/usr/local/lib`, or
 `/usr/lib`?
