Please install gnupg-curl and try again. We build gnupg in two different ways: one time with the built-in cURL implementation and one time against the cURL library. The first has some limitations and maybe you hit one. If that doesn't solve the issue for you, please enable debugging and verbose output for server communication (--keyserver- options verbode,debug) and post the output.
