SWD interface disabled once Gnuk programmed?

Even if the device has been "locked" to prevent any reading back of 
flash via ST-Link, you should be able to wipe and flash new firmware 
(losing any keys on the device in the process).

I'm not sure if that's the issue you're facing when you say "OpenOCD 
behaves as if I'm not plugged into any device" but these are the steps I 
use to upgrade firmware with a locked device and relock it afterwards, 
make sure you double check the ST-Link is correctly connected to the 4 
vias on the GNUK too:-

openocd -f interface/stlink-v2.cfg -f target/stm32f1x_stlink.cfg
telnet localhost 4444

Then to relock you can also do:
 > reset halt
 > stm32f1x lock 0
 > reset

and verify you can no longer read flash back

dump_image mygnuk.img 0 10000

then inspect the img to see if it's blank or valid flash contents for 
example compare it to a read back prior to locking.

If that doesn't work, it may be worth including the output you get from 
ST-Link for the various commands. Someone should be able to help 
pinpoint the problem then.
