Yes, I see...

Of course! I have tried and it seems it is working OK!

Some more details:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
gpg --keyserver http://whatever --debug 1024 --recv-keys 99999999
gpg: lettura delle opzioni da `H:/GnuPG\gpg.conf'
gpg: DBG: expanding string "c:\programmi\gnupg/gpgkeys_curl -o "%o" "%i""
gpg: DBG: args expanded to "c:\programmi\gnupg/gpgkeys_curl -o [...]
gpg: DBG: using temp file `[]tempin.txt'
gpg: requesting key 99999999 from http server whatever
gpg: DBG: system() command is c:\programmi\gnupg/gpgkeys_curl -o
"[]tempout.txt" "[]tempin.txt"

"[]tempin.txt" 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

I have also checked with SysInternals' Process Explorer and the PATHs
inside gpg.exe image are correct in both cases (i.e. the system PATH in
the first case and "c:\" in the second one). 

Thanks again, David! Is there any other test I can make to check this
patch?
