I'm having trouble getting hkp keyservers to work with
auto-key-locate.  gpg do appear to retrieve the key successfully, but
then it complains that it can't use it.  Ideas?

~/.gnupg/gpg.conf contains:

auto-key-locate x-hkp://subkeys.pgp.net

It is NOT certain that the key belongs to the person named
in the user ID.  If you *really* know what you are doing,
you may answer the next question with yes.

Use this key anyway? (y/N)

Btw, DNS CERT retrieval work fine, see:
