Well, most of the other packages I can think of have hard-wired
assumptions about names like "$HOME/.cvspass".  If we have such a
default then there's little need for a PGPASSWORDFILE environment
variable at all.  Perhaps we should go with the historical custom
and remove the env var in favor of a hardwired filename in $HOME.
