The i386 machine is a core 2 Duo with 4Gb of RAM. The armhf one is an
arm chromebook, dual core with 2Gb of RAM.
Anyways on both machines RAM usage is well under a critical value, i 
guess 25%-30% at most...

Yes it's a good idea... i'd also try to abstract the issue even more,
so if i manage to use gpg-agent in a way that doesn't involve pass,
(maybe asimmetrically signing/encrypting some files) and the error
shows up again when invoking via stdbuf, than it'd be likely and
strictly an issue on gpg-agent and not pass... (shouldn't it?)

Updates will follow...
