gpgol passphrase cache can't be emptied - even if passphrase wrong

Description

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

When trying to sign and encrypt a mail with Outlook using a key on the Fellowship smartcard, I'm asked exactly once for the passphrase. If entered wrongly, the message is sent anyway (and can't be decrypted, naturally). There is no (obvious) way of clearing the passphrase cache for gpgol.

How To Repeat

Make sure gpg is configured to use a key off the smartcard.
(Not tried otherwise...)
Open a text format mail.
Check "sign" and "encrypt with GnuPG".
Send the mail.
Enter the wrong PIN

Meanwhile we have greatly improved gnupg on w32. See www.gpg4win.org. Thus it
makes no sense to care about this old bug anymore. If the problem still
persists with Gpg4win 1.9.9, please re-open this bug.
