Subject: ktype.seccure: Bodge around `permission denied' error in signing.
X-Git-Tag: 0.99.2~3

ktype.seccure: Bodge around `permission denied' error in signing.

Not sure why /dev/stdout should be problematic, but avoid the problem
using $(...) to provide a fresh and friendly stdout, and then echo to
the existing file descriptor.
