This seems to be <https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?30462> which has
been fixed already in 55ae061e. But this commit just improves the
cosmetics, the underlying problem (with your database / workspace
though) is that the key who signed the commit is neither available in
the keystore nor in the database and therefor monotone can't determine
the key name of it.

The code there might be written a bit conservative though - if somebody
really lost a private key, he should probably still be able to view his
older commits / certs and we should probably just warn him or something.

Minimal test case to recap:

mtn au genkey address@hidden ""
mtn setup -b test .
mtn mkdir foo
mtn ci -m initial -k address@hidden
mtn dropkey address@hidden
mtn ls certs $(mtn au get_base_revision_id)
