gpg-agent cache

Hi all,
I just build gpg-agent from the 1.9.20 source-tree. Everything seems to
work as expected for both signing and even ssh authentication apart from
the passphrase cache.
I've started gpg-agent with:
/usr/local/bin/gpg-agent --use-standard-socket --pinentry-program
/usr/bin/pinentry-gtk-2 --default-cache-ttl 1800 --default-cache-ttl-ssh
900 --enable-ssh-support --write-env-file $HOME/.gpg-agent-info --daemon
--sh /usr/bin/fvwm2
and added the use-agent option to my config file. No problem (well ok
enigmail is a bit of a pain), apart from the fact that caching doesn't
seem to work. Each time I sign some mail or log in I'm prompted for my
pin...
What am I missing, and/or how can I maybe see why gpg-agent keeps on
prompting for my pin?
