Can you send me a signed mail off list (i.e., directly to me) so I can
check whether it validates.

The gateway does not use the GPG tool. The gateway uses the Bouncycastle
for PGP handling. It might be that GPG has their own random source or
that they are more conservative and require more entropy. Java's
SecureRandom by default uses /dev/random for the random source.
