Well, keyserver.ubuntu.com is still not participating in email syncs
to non-SKS keyservers, but that's a different problem.

keyserver.kjsl.com is now stripping all GD sigs.  The extra variable
in kd_search.c and code for 'case 2:' of make_keys_elem(), respectively:

static unsigned char gdkeyid[8] = {0x97, 0x10, 0xB8, 0x9B,
                                   0xCA, 0x57, 0xAD, 0x7C};


       if ((keyid.size == 8) && (keyid.offset == 0) &&
           (memcmp (keyid.data, gdkeyid, 8) == 0)) {
         break;
       }
