gpg can't encrypt to key 0x587CA0C2:

E:\>echo a | gpg -r 0x587CA0C2 -ae
gpg: key 2DE0F7D0.391: created in future (time warp or clock problem)
gpg: 0x587CA0C2: error checking key: timestamp conflict
gpg: [stdin]: encryption failed: timestamp conflict

key have 3 subkeys - B31418BF expired, F21BD315 valid, and 2DE0F7D0 created in future:

E:>gpg -kv 0x587CA0C2

sub  2048g/2DE0F7D0 2001-12-15 [expires: 2002-06-29]

probably gpg tries to encrypt to wrong subkey :-/
I think it's bug.

(I know about --ignore-time-conflict,
I know that it's possible to select subkey this way 0xF21BD315!,
I know that problem will be no more after 2 deays)
