I don't know how this came to pass, but:

(Windows 10, GnuPG 2.2.0.)

Somehow, this cert got introduced into my keyring twice.  I don't know
how and I don't really know when; I only found out about it after a
script I run every month broke horribly, since it expects a given cert
to only appear once in the keyring.

I don't ever edit my keybox file directly.

Deleting that cert deleted only one of the two certs, too.

There appears to be a bug in the keybox code; unfortunately, I'm not
able to give much in the way of details.  :(
