It was easy enough for me to find that there was something specific to
my environment causing the problem here.

It appears that if /usr/lib appears on the library search path before
/lib that gpg-agent will fail as above. Note:

        $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib gpg-agent
        gpg-agent: no gpg-agent running in this session
        $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/lib gpg-agent       
        gpg-agent: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libassuan.so.0: undefined 
symbol: gpg_err_set_errno
        $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib gpg-agent     
        gpg-agent: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libassuan.so.0: undefined 
symbol: gpg_err_set_errno

So I've got my environment fixed to avoid this problem now. I'm still a
bit curious as to what might be going wrong here.
