This may be more hammer for your task than you really need, but I would
consider making a memory-mapped file object.  Read the data from the two
anonymous FDs, concat them into the memory-mapped file object, and pipe
those contents to GnuPG.

(Note that most people use MMFOs to populate memory blocks with file
contents, but there's no requirement it correspond to a physical file on
disk: anonymous FDs should work.  Also note that I haven't done POSIX
memory mapped files in quite some time: my recollections may be off.)
