FWIW: GnuPG also supports X.509 and CMS (aka S/MIME) you have to use the gpgsm tool, which is similar to gpg as far as possible. However, the X.509 and OpenPGP protocols are quite different in that they use different formats and that OpenPGP is a _functional_ superset of X.509. It is not possible to mix both protocols. There is one exception: With a bit of magic it is possible to use a key stored on a a smartcard by both protocols. This is because down at the lowest math level both use the same algorithms.
