What I usually do is to create a wrapper /foo/pinentry-wrapper:

=========
#!/bin/sh

printenv >/tmp/pinentry.env
exec strace -o /tmp/pinentry.trc -e read=0 \
    /somewhere/pinentry/gtk+-2/pinentry-gtk-2 -e -d "$@" 2>/tmp/pinentry.err
=======

add

pinentry-program /foo/pinentry-wrapper

to gpg-agent.conf, and give gpg-agent a HUP.  Then check the log files.
