I used 1.4.3rc1 because the auto* tools just hate me. This fixes
the problem with the key but I had to delete it from my keyring
in order to get rid of the warnings with 1.4.2. I thought 1.4.3
would discard the corrupt signatures during the import but I
guess it really just skips them at run-time.

By the way, it's probably a good idea to update the website with
respect to CVS. I fetched GnuPG from CVS just read that you're
using SVN since July.
