I managed to make a set of functions to work with GPG, since my hosting provider refused to use GPG-ME.
Included below is an example of decryption using a higher descriptor to push a passphrase.
Comments and emails welcome. :)

<?php
function GPGDecrypt($InputData, $Identity, $PassPhrase, $HomeDir="~/.gnupg", $GPGPath="/usr/bin/gpg") {
    
    if(!is_executable($GPGPath)) {
        trigger_error($GPGPath . " is not executable",
        E_USER_ERROR);
        die();
    } else {
        // Set up the descriptors
        $Descriptors = array(
            0 => array("pipe", "r"),
            1 => array("pipe", "w"),
            2 => array("pipe", "w"),
            3 => array("pipe", "r") // This is the pipe we can feed the password into
        );

        // Build the command line and start the process
        $CommandLine = $GPGPath . ' --homedir ' . $HomeDir . ' --quiet --batch --local-user "' . $Identity . '" --passphrase-fd 3 --decrypt -';
        $ProcessHandle = proc_open( $CommandLine, $Descriptors, $Pipes);

        if(is_resource($ProcessHandle)) {
            // Push passphrase to custom pipe
            fwrite($Pipes[3], $PassPhrase);
            fclose($Pipes[3]);
            
            // Push input into StdIn
            fwrite($Pipes[0], $InputData);
            fclose($Pipes[0]);
            
            // Read StdOut
            $StdOut = '';
            while(!feof($Pipes[1])) {
                $StdOut .= fgets($Pipes[1], 1024);
            }
            fclose($Pipes[1]);
            
            // Read StdErr
            $StdErr = '';
            while(!feof($Pipes[2]))    {
                $StdErr .= fgets($Pipes[2], 1024);
            }
            fclose($Pipes[2]);

            // Close the process
            $ReturnCode = proc_close($ProcessHandle);

        } else {
            trigger_error("cannot create resource", E_USER_ERROR);
            die();
        }
    }
    
    if (strlen($StdOut) >= 1) {
        if ($ReturnCode <= 0) {
            $ReturnValue = $StdOut;
        } else {
            $ReturnValue = "Return Code: " . $ReturnCode . "\nOutput on StdErr:\n" . $StdErr . "\n\nStandard Output Follows:\n\n";
        }
    } else {
        if ($ReturnCode <= 0) {
            $ReturnValue = $StdErr;
        } else {
            $ReturnValue = "Return Code: " . $ReturnCode . "\nOutput on StdErr:\n" . $StdErr;
        }
    }
    return $ReturnValue;
}
