Indeed, is there any combination of options to allow GPG (1.2.1 or 1.2.2)
to encrypt to an _expired_ subkey?  It seems to me that --ignore-time-
conflict, perhaps combined with --expert, should have been sufficient,
although adding --trusted-key and fully specifying the subkey to use
via -r <fingerprint of expired subkey>! didn't help either.
