Hmm. I wonder how many of those keys were actually generated by GnuPG
and how many were made by certain hacked versions of PGP. And for
those created with GnuPG, the following remark in the Readme file
might have played a role:
~  "Please note that the GnuPG implementation of ElGamal signatures is
      *not* insecure."

|
| Again, if someone generates such a key, GnuPG will work with it.  I
| still don't see the need to make it easy to generate them though,
| especially given that if someone wanted it badly enough, they can
| remove the line of code that prevents it themselves.
|
Which line?

Salut,
