=====

Which is especially reasonable,
since it seems that the option of '--faked-system-time' (which used to work on 
earlier versions of GnuPG 2.x),
but doesn't work on current versions of 2.x, and never worked on 1.x, now make 
it especially cumbersome to encrypt to an expired key, 
(by requiring changing the system clock and changing it back again).

As the '--faked-system-time' option is interesting,  maybe re-implementing it 
in both 2.x and 1.x might be an easy workaround in those cases where a user has 
forgotten to update an expired key.

With regard to the resulting sign and encrypt problem, a simple workaround 
would be to clearsign first, and the encrypt the clearsigned mesage with the  
'--faked-system-time' option .
