There is under 1.4. Don't know if it is in v2. I'm not at my desk to pop the script open. But you could pipe the passphrase via stain and tell gpg to grab it from there. Be careful as that still leaves it in the clear to those reading your script. Potential local users could also see it if you echo'd it to the pipe.

Many OSes make the command line parameters of processes available to any local user. Have you tried piping the password to stdin?
