Well, this _appears_ to validate my theory that the problem is simply
that the keyservers aren't synchronizing. However, based on the fact
that a user is generally not correct when facing a discrepancy with the
function of a well-established service, I'm still going to assume this
is a PEBKAC and try Steve's suggestion of wwwkeys.us.pgp.net as a
server.
So, while all of you who use servers other than that specific one
could get it from there (assuming I am correct and they don't
synchronize), I suppose the best thing to do in the name of research is
to wait a day or two (how often are they supposed to mirror?) and see if
the key shows up on your local keyserver. The key is already uploaded
so the clock is ticking:
% gpg --verbose --keyserver wwwkeys.us.pgp.net --send-keys 587F0CD702368857
<title>Public Key Server -- Add</title><p>
<h1>Public Key Server -- Add</h1><p>

Key block added to key server database.
