This seems strange, but GnuPG 1.0.1 does not seem to list the expiration
date for subkeys when the '--with-colons' argument is used. The
expiration date is shown, however, if I list my secret keys instead of the
public keys.

Public key listing:
isr4033 ~> gpg --homedir test --with-colons --list-keys 53AE596EF950DA9C
pub:u:1024:17:53AE596EF950DA9C:2000-02-06:2002-02-05:59:f:GnuPG test key
(for testing purposes only):
uid:u::::::::Foo Bar (1):
sub:u:768:16:ADB99D9C2E854A6B:2000-02-06::59::
isr4033 ~>

Note that the 'sub' record shows an creation date, but not an expiration
date. Now see:

Secret key listing:

isr4033 ~> gpg --homedir test --with-colons --list-secret 53AE596EF950DA9C
sec:u:1024:17:53AE596EF950DA9C:2000-02-06:2002-02-05:::GnuPG test key (for
testing purposes only):
uid:u::::::::Foo Bar (1):
ssb::768:16:ADB99D9C2E854A6B:2000-02-06:2002-02-05:::
isr4033 ~>

Note that this time the expiration date in the 'ssb' record is shown.

BTW, should I be posting bugs like this to the -users or -devel list? Or
some other list?
