I think the problem may be related to the used GnuPG version. Here is
why: GnuPG launches gpg-agent automatically when needed as of version
2.0.16. If an older version of GnuPG is found _and_ no running
gpg-agent is detected, then Enigmail will launch gpg-agent. This is
however an issue, as it often ends up with "unresponsive JavaScript"
with a not completely started gpg-agent and Enigmail failing to complete
initialization. I have tried to fix this, but I cannot see how -- I
have given up.

I see two solutions:
a) upgrade to GnuPG 2.0.16
b) start gpg-agent during login, e.g. add this to .xsession:
  eval $(gpg-agent --daemon)
