Precisely. There is one generic interface for external programs, an
external key ring dumper (unless you use gpg), and a little shell
wrapper for pgp 5 and gpg brain damage (pardon ;-) with respect to
recipient parameters.
With the old version, each version of PGP had a couple of functions
which contained hard-coded invocation sequences. That's not really
what you want to maintain in the long run...
