Subject: Does not handle public keys with multiple subkeys correctly
[text/plain 519b]
The attached file is signed using the signing subkey of Key ID
0xB7A9E538D7398C2F.

In commandline GnuPG, one can import that key from the keyserver, and
verify the signature of the file.

1) Crypt::OpenPGP fails to import the key correctly. When the imported
key is listed with GnuPG, one gets the error

gpg: subpacket of type 32 too short

2) Using the correctly-imported key (imported using GnuPG),
Crypt::OpenPGP fails to verify the signature on the above file.

Results obtained using Perl 5.8.8 on MacOSX 10.4.6.

As the whole interweb saw, I screwed up posting my public key previously. Jacques wrote to me to check if I had corrected my setup and offered some help-- what a guy! My key worked fine in that correspondence, and I've been able to import it successfully on a few different machines, so I'm hoping that this comment will verify using the public key on my website.

Thanks for your help, Jacques!
