The checkbox actually lets Xcode know that you are using SHH instead
of RSH so we set the CVS_RSH environment variable appropriately and
connect to the CVS repository using SSH (behind the scenes we manage
the connection using ssh-agent).
I'll state again that you shouldn't need to use a 3rd party tool like
SSH Keychain with Xcode 2.0 to use CVS over SSH if you are using
public keys (you can if you want, it just isn't necessary).

I found the root cause of my problem. Apparently I had neglected
to send Sourceforge my public keys via a form on their web page.
So even from the command line ssh was not able to do key
authentication and so it failed back on simple password checking.
What I thought was a ssh passphrase prompt was actually a password
prompt. So neither ssh-agent nor SSH Keychain helped until I sent
Sourceforge my keys. Now Xcode SCM works for me.
As for the ssh/rsh checkbox Wade, I think all it does is force the
passphrase check dialog to come up in Xcode. When I uncheck it,
SSH authentication still works behind the scenes as long as I have
ssh-agent running. It still uses SSH since the $CVS_RSH
environment variable is set to ssh. So I am leaving it unchecked
now so it won't bother me with a passphase it probably doesn't even
use (since ssh-agent already knows what it is).
Thanks everyone for the help,

I'm pretty sure Xcode doesn't support password-protected keys.
The password it prompts you for is for the repository itself, I'm
pretty sure - it still prompts me even though I use SSH keys for
authentication (I just leave the password blank).
Also you will need to use SSH for Sourceforge; they don't support
RSH (or pserver, etc).
