--- Comment #4 from Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org> ---
These have all be committed and should be in OpenSSH 9.1, due in a few
months.

It should be safe to use -U even for older versions. It won't require
the agent (as openssh-9.1 will) but it won't cause an error.

Thanks again for the report and suggestions.

upstream: Allow existing -U (use agent) flag to work with "-Y sign"

operations, where it will be interpreted to require that the
private keys is
hosted in an agent; bz3429, suggested by Adam Szkoda; ok dtucker@
