Many of the keyservers found at wwwkeys.pgp.net have bugs with subkey
handling and will mangle them in some way.  The alias subkeys.pgp.net
is available as a set of keyservers that are running corrected
software, and it is widely recommended by keyserver operators that
default server settings be changed to subkeys.pgp.net.
