GPG wants to check trustdb every day

I'm running version 1.2.4 of gpg, from the Debian's 1.2.4-4 package of
gnupg.  Several days ago I noticed that gpg suddenly wants to start
rechecking the trustdb every single day.  Prior to this, it was just
checking it every month or so.

Here's the output from "gpg --check-trustdb":

% gpg --check-trustdb
gpg: public key 98645519 is 43099 seconds newer than the signature
gpg: checking at depth 0 signed=86 ot(-/q/n/m/f/u)=0/0/0/0/0/1
gpg: public key 98645519 is 43099 seconds newer than the signature
gpg: checking at depth 1 signed=257 ot(-/q/n/m/f/u)=22/0/0/54/10/0
gpg: public key 98645519 is 43099 seconds newer than the signature
gpg: checking at depth 2 signed=628 ot(-/q/n/m/f/u)=134/0/0/0/0/0
gpg: next trustdb check due at 2004-12-27

As far as I know I haven't changed anything.  /usr/bin/gpg was last
changed on 2004-02-23, and ~/.gnupg/options was changed on 2003-07-30.

I've tried running "gpg --rebuild-keydb-caches" but that didn't help.
Anyone know what else might be causing this?

Thanks.
