definetly not. 'load-extension idea' works fine for me.
The problem must lay elsewhere. It's intresting that Gamma Pi does
not seem to get any error messages. If you changed the right option
file, and gpg can't find an extension you specified, you should get a
message like:
'/usr/local/lib/gnupg/rsa : cannot open shared object file: ...blah,
blah ,blah'
So maybe gpg is not reading the 'options' file you think, or there is
something wrong with the load extension line. However this should
give you a message like this:
'gpg: /home/jerome/.gnupg/options:73: invalid option'
unless it begins with '#', which would be a pretty trivial error :-)
However shit happens :-)

If this won't help you, I am pretty clueless.

CU,
     Jerome
