Public bug reported:

Symptom: the ssh-agent does not have my key anymore after upgrade to
13.10

I use kdm and pam-ssh to deal with my keys.

It appears that pam-ssh does its job, and my key it actually there... in
another agent: I can see 2 ssh-agent processes, and changing the
SSH_AUTH_SOCK and SSH_AGENT_PID environment variables so that they refer
to the other one reveals my key...

The script /usr/share/upstart/sessions/ssh-agent.conf launches ssh-
agent, regardless of whether it is already there or not.

Adding the line:
    [ "$SSH_AGENT_PID" ] && { stop; exit 0; } # already running

before line:
    eval "$(ssh-agent)" >/dev/null

in the script does restore the behavior before upgrade.
