Gnupg incorrect malformed message verification

Tavis Ormandy discovered that it is still possible to trick gnupg into
incorrectly verifying a signed message.

The patch is here:

From User-Agent: XML-RPC

gnupg-1.4.2.2-1 has been pushed for FC4, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Hmm, don't know why this didn't get closed.
