I think I misunderstood the crux of the problem as being GnuPG specific
vs. one win2k user not understanding his app's
error message.

IOW, GnuPG and PGP gripe at the verification step about validity/trust
of the signator's authenticity, upon lack of a recognized trusted key. 
Of course. I thought something else was the issue.
