Also, watching tests by hand shows gpg pausing for a noticeable time
(~500ms?) even on my extremely fast laptop, perhaps when converting
the test gpg1 keys etc. to gpg2 keys etc.

If I do this conversion once in the source, will the result be useable
by gpg1 ?  (Since I want the test suite to still work on earlier
versions of Debian.)
