Description of problem:
on initial gpg run, secring.gpg isn't created at all, which causes major problems on --key-gen

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnupg-1.2.1-10

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
host:~ $> rm -rf .gnupg/
host:~ $> gpg --gen-key

You need a User-ID to identify your key; the software constructs the user id
from Real Name, Comment and Email Address in this form:
    "Heinrich Heine (Der Dichter) <heinrichh>"

Real name: test
Email address: test
Comment:
You selected this USER-ID:
    "test <test>"

Change (N)ame, (C)omment, (E)mail or (O)kay/(Q)uit? O
You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key.

You don't want a passphrase - this is probably a *bad* idea!
I will do it anyway.  You can change your passphrase at any time,
using this program with the option "--edit-key".

We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.

Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give
the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 130 more bytes)

Actual Results:  See above, no secring.gpg is created

Expected Results:  Create an initial secring.gpg, if not existent
