Force ssh-agent output to use bourne-style syntax

On systems where the shell cannot be changed because of a strict security policy, ssh-agent will use the syntax of whatever the default $SHELL is. For instance, if the default shell is tcsh, ssh-agent will use the c-shell style (setenv). This change forces ssh-agent to use bourne-style syntax since that has to be later interpreted by zsh. Consequently, the environment file will contain `export' statements from now on (instead of `setenv').
