Ok, that makes sense.  So I have to figure out the proper way here.  I'm using
gpgme_data_new_from_stream() in gpgmeDataNewFromFilename():

    FILE* stream = fopen(filename_str, mode_str);
    gpgme_error_t err = gpgme_data_new_from_stream(&data, stream);

Then in gpgmeDataRelease(), I believe I'm responsible for closing that stream.
 So I need to maintain the FILE *stream outside of gpgme_data_t?  I looked
around a lot for examples of code that uses gpgme_data_new_from_stream() and
gpgme_data_new_from_cbs() but didn't find any. I'd love some pointers for that.
