I think this is a corrupt secret keyring.  Regardless of the issue of "-sign" vs "--sign", an abort like that shouldn't happen.  I don't know what version of GnuPG this is, but the only BUG() call in the lookup function is one that fires if the packet it sees in the secret keyring is not a secret key.
