I don't know if Gnu Privacy Guard has been ported or not, but even it if
has I strongly suspect you need the C compiler to compile it.  Porting it
to another language besides a C related one would be...  nuts.

In theory porting it should not be too hard.  I'm guessing that by far the
most difficult part would be getting the build process right.
