Application?  First I tried doing the complete approach that your
howto describes.  Then I tried adding it as the pinentry-program in
~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf, and tested it via command line.  Still no
luck, so I tried sending the GETPIN command to it manually with the
results that you responded to.

Version of MacOS?  Mac OS 10.4.10

What do you mean by Chipset? (did you miss my first email?)  From my
first email:
MacBookPro, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz, 2GB DDR2
