Browse source 
* common/name-value.c (struct name_value_container): Add flag
"modified".
(nvc_modified): New.
(nvc_new): Set flag.
(_nvc_add): Set flag.
(nvc_delete): Set flag.
(nve_set): Add arg PK.  Change the caller.  Check whether to change at
all.
* agent/findkey.c (agent_write_private_key): Update only if modified.
