+1 on forcing it always on. gpgme already requires all packages linked
against it to use same largefile switch value as it does,
and maintaining the ability to switch it on/off just creates more
trouble than profit.

The only use case I see for the explicit switch possibility
are the dependencies of -bin packages.
