using verify over stdin

Thanks! :)

Now one last problem.  Why when I use --passphrase-fd, it blocks program 
execution even though it has not sent NEED_PASSPHRASE to the status-fd?

My plan was to always use --passphrase-fd and have a pipe ready, just in case 
a particular operation needs a passphrase.
