well, I found that you can change the path for gpg 1.4.9 using 
the ./configure --prefix=PATH. so I recompiled it with /usr/bin instead of 
the default /usr/local/bin. SO, gnupg installs by default to /usr/local/bin, 
per the INSTALL file:

Installation Names
==================

By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc.  You can specify an
installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
option `--prefix=PREFIX'.


yet, kmail was looking specifically for /usr/bin/gpg.
