Right.  When I press "cancel" in the pinentry window, there's no data
output in the egp buffer, but the following lands in the
epg-context-error-buffer...  and is then ignored, and we return a
success:

gpgsm: Note: non-critical certificate policy not allowed
gpgsm: Note: non-critical certificate policy not allowed
gpgsm: DBG: adding certificates at level -2
gpgsm: error creating signature: Operation cancelled <Pinentry>
