Try running "gpg --no-sig-cache --rebuild-keydb-caches".  It'll take a
long time.  I suspect you have some uncached signatures and/or
uncached Elgamal signatures (worse) on your keyring.

The next version of GnuPG (1.2.2) takes extreme care to always cache
every possible signature when importing a key.
