You may be under the impression that a Key & a Certificate are 2
different animals.  By definition, a PGP/GPG Key _is_ a Certificate.  An
x.509 Certificate is just an asymmetric Keypair issued/assigned by an
Organization whereas a PGP/GPG Key is basically a self-generated
Certificate.

The 'generation bug' had to do with the software used by x.509
Organizations to created the 'Keypair' they assigned to their clients.
GnuPG uses a different random number generation process so was not affected.
