Title:
  ssh-agent clobbers LD_LIBRARY_PATH and other environment variables

Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “openssh” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Since /usr/bin/ssh-agent is setgid ssh, it unsets LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
  This made it impossible to set this variable in my dotfiles
  (.gnomerc).

  My solution was to write a wrapper script that prefixes the command with /usr/bin/env VAR=val ... for each variable that gets unset:
