This is probably a failed stat(2).  That can be expected if the /run
directy etc does not exits ...

An strace would be very helpful to see exactly what is going wrong.

   e) We fix how gpgconf is used.  Given that a GNUGHOME is set the
      regular code to locate the socketdir will use GNUPGHOME which is
      what we need.  Only gpgconf --create-socketdir is picky about
      permissions etc. and tells the user this.  I think this is correct
      behaviour because the user requested to create a socketdir.
