Hi,
gpg (1.4.1) always asks whether UID certifications should expire on the
same day as the primary key:
| weasel at galaxy:~$ gpg --no-ask-cert-expire --sign-key 52C8180E
| [..]
| pub  1024D/52C8180E  created: 2004-12-11  expires: 2012-12-10  usage: CS  
|                      trust: marginal      validity: full
|  Primary key fingerprint: 77FA 0CBE A7BB 268A 312B  DB25 3D45 FF99 52C8 180E
| 
|      Matthias Bauer <matthiasb at acm.org>
|      Matthias Bauer <bauerm at shoestringfoundation.org>
| 
| This key is due to expire on 2012-12-10.
| Do you want your signature to expire at the same time? (Y/n) 
I always answer no to this question.
Is it possible to change the behaviour of --no-ask-cert-expire to also
apply to this case?  At least the manpage suggests that it already should do
just that:
|      --no-ask-cert-expire
|                When making a key signature, prompt for an  expiration  time.
|                If  this  option  is  not  specified,  the expiration time is
|                "never".  --no-ask-cert-expire disables this option.
