Hello NIIBE,

I tried the combination of
  pcsc-lite-1.8.14
  ccid-1.4.20
  gnupg-2.0.29 (configured with --disable-ccid-driver)
Both 2048 and 4096-bit keys can be generated without error.
Also tried gnupg-2.0.29 using its internal ccid-driver with debug output
enabled in "$HOME/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf". There was indeed a timeout.

Thomas, Thank you for your information! It's good to know
that gnupg 2.1.6 works, though I have have no time to setup
a test system for modern gnupg (2.1.x) at present.

Thank you all, and
Regards,

Guan
