1.07 and v3 rsa signatures

I find this odd -- the original message suggests that if gpg1.0.6 encrypts
using a v3 rsa key that pgp couldn't  decrypt.  The short message below
decrypted fine (before my mail tool added >'s) with PGP7.03, but 
gpg107 can't handle it -- reporting "no data" (using WinPT 5.5 and
clipboard).
