A couple of things:

1. A funny thing happened on the way to the forum..

without tor:

robert at darkstar:~$ gpg --refresh-keys
gpg: NOTE: old default options file `/home/robert/.gnupg/options' ignored
gpg: refreshing 4 keys from hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: requesting key EA59038E from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: requesting key 985A444B from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: requesting key 22F6856F from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: requesting key 28988BF5 from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: key EA59038E: "Stephen Gran <sgran at debian.org>" not changed
gpg: key 985A444B: "Tomasz Kojm <tkojm at clamav.net>" not changed
gpg: key 22F6856F: "Robert Hogan <robert at roberthogan.net>" not changed
gpg: key 28988BF5: "Roger Dingledine <arma at mit.edu>" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 4
gpg:              unchanged: 4


a few seconds later using tor/privoxy on exit mychat4004d801 (resolves to an 
edu.tw address):

bash-3.1$ gpg --refresh-keys
gpg: NOTE: old default options file `/home/robert/.gnupg/options' ignored
gpg: refreshing 4 keys from hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
gpg: requesting key EA59038E from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net

gpg: key 28988BF5: "Roger Dingledine <arma at mit.edu>" 2 new signatures
gpg: Total number processed: 4
gpg:              unchanged: 3
gpg:         new signatures: 2
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, classic trust model
gpg: depth: 0  valid:   1  signed:   0  trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 1u


I've removed reference to other keys that were verified and unchanged. Only 
Roger's was affected. I have a cloudy understanding of the gpg infrastructure 
but this seems suspicious. Anyone?

2. torify gpg --refresh-keys

I'm using the patched libsocks that handles dns itself and cannot get the 
above to work. Always times out. Has anyone else got it to work?
