Limits on passphrase for ssh-agent?

On FC4, I have generated RSA keys with ssh-keygen,
copied them to a Win2k box, imported them into
Putty, and successfully used them. Now I tried
to import the original private key on the Linux
box into an ssh-agent with ssh-add. I enter the
passphrase with the mouse copy-and-paste capability
and the passphrase is rejected as bad. (I do
the same thing successfully on the Win2k box.)
Could it be that some characters should be
disallowed from the passphrase? Now, I allow
characters: if(isgraph(ch) && (ch != '\'')) .
Should there be further restriction? What else
might be the problem?
Thanks for your help.
Mike.
