openssh unix dev - Dec 2009 - ssh-agent in Cygwin?

Hi,

We're adding agent support to libssh2 and I'd like to know if the
OpenSSH ssh-agent runs also in Cygwin, and if so how it does IPC?
Pageant will be supported, but if it makes sense and there is little
overhead it would be nice to also cover Cygwin.

I don't quite understand the question.  Cygwin's ssh-agent is working
just like on other platforms, using AF_UNIX sockets.
