Who said you had to use gpg2 in order to use gpg-agent? I've used 
gpg-agent with gpg 1.4.x for years; all you have to do is add 
'use-agent' to your gpg.conf.

I was going to ask how you know gpg2 isn't being used, but...

Anyway, out of curiosity, why worry about it? As far as I know, 
there's no real benefit to using gpg2; the only difference is that it 
supports building against an external gnupglib library as opposed to 
being self-contained. All the encryption methods are the same, and gpg 
v1 has undergone more rigorous testing by the security community. Is 
there something you're trying to accomplish in particular? Maybe my 
information about gpg2 is outdated...
