The regexp fix for messages with very long lines.

Yeah, it bounces me back to pinentry, where I proceeded to enter it
correctly.  It *shouldn't* produce a bad message, it was just one of the
only things I could think of that had changed between the two messages
which might have led to different behavior.

I'll take a look at this...

I expect this will have the same behavior as checking signatures on
messages I send, no?



Just a little background that we discussed before forwarding this to
the list:

Ben is using gpg 1 after correspondents complained the switch to gpg 2
caused his messages to have bad signatures.

I am using gpg 2.0.11

I see *all* Ben's messages as having bad signatures, and see all my own
(either in sent.mbox or bounced back to me from the list) as good.  I
also see Ben's signatures as bad when looking at the same messages
through mutt.  I see the same thing going back to his first signed
message to sup-talk, and also in his direct emails to me.

Ben sees most of my signatures as good, but has recently experienced an
intermittent issue where my signatures are bad.
