Comment (by fhgwright):

 It makes sense that the agent isn't automatically included in `port load`,
 but it would be useful if there were another `port load` target for it.  I
 have a working setup for it here, though I haven't determined whether
 there's a way to duplicate the behavior of PATH, where the MacPorts
 version of a command is used if it's active, and the OS-supplied version
 otherwise.

 I just made a modified version of the Apple LaunchAgent, as follows:
 {{{
 MacPro:~ fw$ diff /System/Library/LaunchAgents/org.openbsd.ssh-agent.plist
 /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macports.ssh-agent.plist
 6c6
 <       <string>org.openbsd.ssh-agent</string>
 ---
 >       <string>org.macports.ssh-agent</string>
 9c9
 <               <string>/usr/bin/ssh-agent</string>
 ---
 >               <string>/opt/local/bin/ssh-agent</string>
 }}}
 With that, one just unloads the system version and loads the MacPorts
 version, though there's no automatic fallback if the MacPorts version is
 deactivated.

 The separate target issue could probably be solved just by creating a
 dummy subport for the agent load.
