Maybe you should consider upgrading to 1.4.9, if possible...
If you don't have enabled dsa2 at gpg.conf file, DSA keys can be just
1024 bits long, while ElGammal can have greater lengths. If you enable
DSA2, then you can chose DSA keys length 1024 and 2048. RSA keys can be
up to 4096 bits long.
Best Regards
