Didn't get very exciting output of ktrace:

--------------------------------------------------------------
~> ktrace -dit+ /usr/local/bin/gpg -d mail.gpg
[...]
~> kdump -f ktrace.out
70994 ktrace RET ktrace 0
70994 ktrace CALL execve(0xbfbfe7a9,0xbfbfe678,0xbfbfe688)
70994 ktrace NAMI "/usr/local/bin/gpg"
70994 ktrace NAMI "/libexec/ld-elf.so.1"
--------------------------------------------------------------

A ktrace of the same cmdline, but with pinentry->pinentry-gtk,
renders the exact same output (except pid of course) -- and
pinentry-gtk works where pinentry->pinentry-curses does not.

Any suggestions for deeper inspection?

Thanks.
