It's probably time for me to upgrade my system anyways, so I'll try to
start using gpg 2.1 and see what artifacts I'm getting with
pinentry-curses.  If I don't see anything, I think I still have a
FreeBSD kvm image around I can play with.

As far as pinentry-tty, unless someone has an idea that won't cause the
flickering, I don't think we can support it (for decryption).  But we
certainly *should* make sure pinentry-curses is working properly.
