C2C60518 gives the 2010 expiry date, as it says above.  However, CA57AD7C 
shows on mine as expiring on 18/01/09.  I wonder why that is, and whether that 
is the cause of the problem?

There are some screwy things going on with gpg at the moment.   Yesterday I 
opened Robert's message and got a no-key, imported it, and all seemed well.  
This morning the same message shows 'bad signature'.  Something wrong, or 
something not updated yesterday?  I don't know.

Robert, please send me an off-list signed message so that we can test the 
simpler case.
