There's possibly another sollution:

Does cygwin support something like LD_RUN_PATH?

Under Linux, you can embed a path into the executable binaries. The
linker then additionally searches that path for libraries. That path is
afaik called LD_RUN_PATH.

So does cygwin support such a thing? I'm almost sure, that windows
doesn't support that, but since the gpgkeys_hkp.exe is excuted by gpg
using cygwin's calls, cygwin might have a look at the
gpgkeys_hkp.exe-file first, and then evaluate the embedded path for
searching the libraries.


Greetings
  Sven
