Keyring locations

Hello,
I have been helping Timo beta-test WinPT and we have been trying
to solve a problem that came about because I keep my keyrings in an
encrypted Scramdisk partition that I mount when I'm going to be doing
some crypto stuff.
When I mount the scramdisk partition it comes up as my P: drive
(though I JUST changed this today to S: for "secure").
WinPT had trouble with that in the beginning because it expected
them to be in the C:\GnuPG directory. I made things worse by not
using *.GPG file extensions for the keyrings and sticking with the
PGP names of pubring.pkr and secring.skr.
This was easy to tell GPG about by simply adding 2 lines to my
OPTIONS file defining the path of my keyring and secret-keyring.
My question of course has to do with GPA. I look forward to using
it under Win32, but wonder if my particular config is going to break
anything that GPA expects? Will using the Scramdisk partition
confuse GPA? I don't want to have to move my keyrings out of the
encrypted partition.
