I had the same issue and changed dates on my key. Now if I look at my
keystore it looks as my public key life if extended:

klaus at zap:~> gpg --list-key 30096062
pub   4096R/30096062 2009-10-08 [expires: 2015-07-14]
uid                  Klaus Vink Slott <klaus at vink-slott.dk>
sub   4096g/BA72310E 2009-10-08 [expires: 2010-10-08]

but my sub key is not and I guess that is a problem? Can I extend the
life of the subkey or do I issue a new sub-key. Will the new subkey
still carry on the trust from people that people that have signed my
public key?

Another thing that puzzles me is that even if I have uploaded my keys
again to public servers

klaus at zap:~> gpg --send-key 30096062

(in gpg.conf in have keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net)

the servers don't seem to list my new expiry date when I search my key
from the web interface.
