Now I have:
 * each run of the test suite gets a fresh value of GNUPGHOME
   (ie, not a directory name that was previously used and
   has since been deleted)
 * all my calls to gpg are serialised

The problem persists, with very similar symptoms.  Of course now I
have only one stuck gpg process.  The other processes in the test
suite are blocking waiting for my gpg serialisation lock.

I'm going to try adding some sleeps.

Ian.
