gnupg-w32cli-1.4.10b.exe doesn't seem to create gpgProgram entry
anymore, so it will fail if gnupg is installed at non-default location.

The recent GPGME 1.1.8 checks
'HKLM\Software\GNU\GnuPG\Install Directory' instead (and this entry
exists on both old and new gnupg), so I think upgrading GPGME will
solve this problem. I will fix it at the next release.
