Okay, sorry. I looked in the bug list, but didn't get down
to the wishlist bugs. 

(FYI: it's caused by GnuPG being killed and leaving a lock file
in ~/.gnupg. Do rm ~/.gnupg/*.lock to fix it. Considering that
gpg can check that there is no process 829 as well as I can,
why doesn't it deal with it?)
