The reason for the absolute paths is very likely to ensure that it

How many random programs named "gpg" are there around?
I think it's a very remote corner case.

It really depends on your environment (and even if they're the "same",
they may not be the particular version you wanted).

Anyway, adding a change like that just gets you noticed on BugTraq, etc.
Your choice.
