Thanks, missed that paragraph. 

However, things seem not to be working with subkeys.  I'm getting "Need
the secret key to do this" or "no default secret key" for a many
operations.  Including trying to import to gpg-agent, --edit-key ->
toggle or a signing operation.  I would assume 'toggle' would not be
considered a card related sub-command of '--edit-key'.

If using subkeys does the master private key need to be present to
perform the 'gpg --import ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg' into gpg-agent?

Signing and toggle works fine with 2.0.15/2.0.16 and the same gpg.conf.

TIA
