"the default" is somewhat confusing phrase.  I'd suggest that EasyPG
should become "the preferred" sign and encryption support in Gnus.
i.e. Gnus will use it rather than PGG, if available.

Anyway,

I don't think so.  IIUC, you can suppose the following use cases:

(a) Emacs 21/22 (release)
(b) Emacs 21/22 (release) + Gnus CVS
(c) Emacs CVS + Gnus CVS

The users who benefit from including EasyPG in Gnus CVS are, using (b)
and too lazy to install EasyPG as a separate package.  I assume that
they are in the minority compared to others[1].  Is it not enough to
display warning messages when PGG is going to be used instead of EasyPG?

Regards,

Footnotes: 

[1] Yes, I'm aware of several OS distributions which have Gnus packages
built from Gnus CVS.  However, they are not in the case because EasyPG
is also packaged there and dependencies between packages can be
asserted).
