Sometimes even good practices need to be broken.  This is such a case.
There is a better solution, but it requires major extensions to
libassuan, which we are not currently planning for (to be specific:
libassuan should provide hooks for everything gpgme needs to change in
its implementation.  Then we can just link to libassuan and remove the
local copy).

Ok, I used 2.0.4 for testing the release.  It is possible that
something changed which broke the test case, I'll have to check it
out.  Thanks for letting me know.

Probably also related to the gpg/gpgsm version.

Mmh.  Did you specify gpg2 as default gpg for gpgme?  And did it ask
for the passphrase in tests/gpg or tests/gpgsm?  Actually, in which
particular test, gpg/t-sign?

Thanks,
