Same as above.  However, not all options are reloaded.

      opt.quiet = 0;
      opt.verbose = 0;
      opt.debug = 0;
      opt.no_grab = 0;
      opt.pinentry_program = NULL;
      opt.scdaemon_program = NULL;
      opt.def_cache_ttl = DEFAULT_CACHE_TTL;
      opt.max_cache_ttl = MAX_CACHE_TTL;
      opt.ignore_cache_for_signing = 0;
      opt.allow_mark_trusted = 0;
      opt.disable_scdaemon = 0;

The above list shows the options which are changeable at runtime,
others are ignored.  The actual option names are similar to the above
variable names.  I'll add notes to the manual.
