to libgcrypt functions, using shared error codes from libgpg-error,
replacing the old functions we used to have in ../util by those in
../jnlib and ../common, renaming the malloc functions and a couple of
types. Note, that not all changes are listed below becuause they are
too similar and done at far too many places. As of today the code
builds using the current libgcrypt from CVS but it is very unlikely
that it actually works.

* keyring.c (create_tmp_file, rename_tmp_file): Create tmp files with
user-only permissions, but restore the original permissions if the user
has something special set.
* openfile.c (copy_options_file): Create new options file (gpg.conf) with
user-only permissions.
* keydb.c (keydb_add_resource): Create new keyrings with user-only
permissions.
restarting gpg. This is Debian bug 124219, though their supplied patch
will not do the right thing.
* main.h, tdbio.c (tdbio_set_dbname), misc.c (removed check_permissions),
keydb.c (keydb_add_resource), g10.c (main, check_permissions): Significant
reworking of the permission check mechanism. The new behavior is to check
everything in the homedir by checking the homedir itself. If the user
wants to put (possibly shared) keyrings outside the homedir, they are not
checked. The options file and any extension files are checked wherever
they are, as well as their enclosing directories. This is Debian bug
147760.
