there are a lot of possible issues depending on the version of ssh. I
guess that a setuid or setgid is missing. Current versions (e.g. 3.9) of
ssh usually only need a setgid for ssh-agent.

bauke_at_hal:~$ ls -l `which ssh-agent`
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root ssh 56600 2005-03-15 14:09 /usr/bin/ssh-agent

But see also http://www.openssh.com/faq.html#2.2
