With what?  I haven't had compatibility problems with modern GnuPG,
except when corresponding to PGP 2.x users, but then the problem is
really that PGP 2.x doesn't implement OpenPGP.  Some painful code has
been added, so that Gnus generate, using PGG/GnuPG, messages that can
be read even by RFC 1991 compatible implementations, like PGP 2.x.
IIRC, one example was that RFC 1991 doesn't ignore trailing white
space, as in the '-- ' signature separator, but RFC 2440 does.  But if
you use AES, it isn't likely that PGP 2.x will be able to read it
anyway.
