More strangeness.

Starting from an empty GnuPG 2.1.1 Win 7/x64 installation, I imported my
existing secret certificate for 0xD6B98E10 and set it to ultimate trust.
  The result was a little ... weird.

C:\Users\rhansen>gpg --edit-key d6b98e10
Secret key is available.

... Now, maybe I'm missing something completely obvious here (and if so,
it wouldn't be the first time), but if I have the secret part of a
certificate, and that certificate is marked as ultimately trusted, isn't
it a bit odd that the user IDs would possess undefined validity?
