Yubikey, GnuPG 2.1 Modern, and SSH on OS X

I recently setup my own Mac w/ gnupg 2.1.10, and I am using a Yubikey to
manage my gpg private keys and I am using that key for SSH auth.  I have it
all up and running but I ran into some issues as well so I wrote up a blog
post.  I'd appreciate any suggestions for improvement and especially for
any ideas for a better fix for the workaround I had to do that I documented
at the end of the post.  Maybe this will be of some use to those wanting to
use the latest gpg for SSH auth on a Mac with a Yubikey.

Here is a discussion thread that describes *exactly* the issue I am still
having (if I don't use my workaround to kill and restart gpg-agent on every
yubikey insertion and deletion):
