Hmm ... I saw that but I can't see the pinentry in there:

$ gpg-agent --version
gpg-agent (GnuPG) 2.0.14
libgcrypt 1.4.5

I will file a bug, but I am not entirely sure what I should file it under, so 
that it does not get rejected:

gpg-agent which is calling pinentry-qt?

app-crypt/pinentry, because it's done away with my previous pinentry-qt 
symlink to the pinentry binary?

qt3 to qt4 move (in case this is linked to qt3 becoming deprecated)?

Thank you so much for holding my hand on this!  :-)
