Thanks for that. Given that I need to do multiple operations on the card with 
different GNUPGHOME values during one session, is there a way to cause an 
earlier instance of scdaemon to either exit or to release the card, so that a 
new instance can have exclusive access? It seems like this would have to happen 
before the second invocation of gpgme_op_interact().

Thanks!
