PGP 6.5.8 Public Key problems

[customer]

New to this list, and couldn't find a similar question in the archive,
but if there is, feel free to flame me (while referencing the original
question/answer!):

It seems to me that PGP 6.5.8's fix for the nasty public key exploit
caused GPG to have problems with the new public key.  This is
completely a guess, but this is what I've found, and help on the
matter would be greatly appreciated:

(BTW, I'm using GPG 1.0.3, tested on both a FreeBSD 4.1 box, and a
Mandrake Linux 7.1 box with the exact same results)

Importing public/private PGP keys from pre 6.5.8 works fine (DH/DSS &
RSA)

Importing PRIVATE keys from PGP 6.5.8 works fine

Importing PUBLIC keys gives me an error every time, the error is as
follows:

the clocks on both systems are within a minute of each other

Thanks for the anticipated help,
