Reading your post mpre carefully, I see that your KEY, not just
the additional self-signature, is RSA v3, in which the same key
is used for signing and ancryption. In PGP 6.5.8 you can tick
the v4 option for RSA
keys and this will create a signing key with a subkey for
encryption.
But as I said in the previous post adding a new identity in PGP
6.5.8 will give you a v3 self-signature. If you create your v4
key in PGP you can add an identity in GnuPG and it will have a
v4 signature.
