IMHO the gpg-agent should be able to ask the passphrase with the
help of /usr/lib64/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass which is that the environment
variable SSH_ASKPASS is read with getenv(). From the manual page
of gpg-agent it seems a bit different:
[...]
Note: in case the gpg-agent receives a signature request, the
user might need to be prompted for a passphrase, which is neces-
sary for decrypting the stored key. Since the ssh-agent proto-
col does not contain a mechanism for telling the agent on which
display/terminal it is running, gpg-agent's ssh-support will use
the TTY or X display where gpg-agent has been started. To
switch this display to the current one, the follwing command may
be used:
echo UPDATESTARTUPTTY | gpg-connect-agent
