Actually, someone already wrote an extension: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gpgext This is GPL'd, so it's safe to use in a program without any license violations. But since it is GPL'd, there's no way to have it included in something like PECL. If anyone is going to use it, make sure you apply the patch I submitted (in the Patches section on SourceForge) before using it. The author still hasn't gotten back to me about that. The patch corrects a problem with the use of a pointer to an array without memset()'ing it to nulls first in the gpgme_encrypt() call.
