This was on my machine at work, I'll do some more tests tomorrow.
OS: Win2000 SP1
gpg.exe placed in C:\U, a directory in the path.
Registry entry to homedir c:/home/johanw/.gnupg/, where the options file,
the public keyring and the trustdb are located. The secret keyring is
located on a CD-ROM drive (trustdb should be writable or the program
crashes). This is indicted in the options file: it contains a line
secret-keyring d:/home/johanw/.gnupg/secring.gpg
(gpg creates an empty secring on c: anyway). I load the idea and skipjack
modules (I've ported skipjack the same way as idea on the winpt site to
win32).

On my Linux box (libc5, kernel 2.0.38) gpg -kvv works fine with 1.0.5.
