Good idea.  I changed it to 

  unset SSH_AGENT_PID
  if [ "${gnupg_SSH_AUTH_SOCK_by:-0}" -ne $$ ]; then
    export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="$(gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket)"
  fi

Added.  And also, as you can see above, there is a new mode to print
only the names specified on the command line - without percent-escaping.
