Done.  If you run gpg with -v you now get this:

  gpg: pinentry launched (pid 23496, flavor gtk2, version 0.9.8-beta32)

and if the curses fallback is used

  gpg: pinentry launched (pid 26376, flavor gtk2:curses, version 0.9.8-beta32)

For the currently release pinentries, the flavor will showup as
"unknown".  This also changes the PINENTRY_LAUNCHED status callback and
I hope that this does not break anything.


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner
