commit 7f919063d3e426104fe58ae779a9a066140014c1
Author: Werner Koch <wk at gnupg.org>
Date:   Tue Mar 22 19:55:25 2016 +0100

    gpg: Remove the extra prompt for Curve25519.
    
    * g10/keygen.c (MY_USE_ECDSADH): New macro local to ask_curve.
    (ask_curve): Use a fixed table of curve names and reserve a slot for
    Curve448.  Simplify CurveNNNN/EdNNNN switching.
    (ask_curve): Remove the Curve25519 is non-standard prompt.

    Given that ECC generation is only available in export mode and that
    gpg will in any case support our current ed2559/cv25519 definition the
    extra prompt does not make anymore sense.
