i just edited the cipher preferences on a key with 2 UIDs. the public key
records the changes properly, but the secret key only recorded the changes
on the second UID... the first UID retained the original cipher
preferences, on the secret key.

after "setpref" and "updpref", "showpref" displays the new preferences for
both UIDs. indeed, the changes ~are~ made to the public key.

at first, i did not explicitly select a UID... which seems to imply that
the action should involve both UIDs. on testing this out, i tried
explicitly selecting both UIDs and the same thing happens.
