Wow! I thought that was just the first copywrite date.

gnugp installs gpg-2 which is almost the right thing but the
files encrypted from pgp report as using the "idea" method.
gpg-idea is a port that currently appears to try to decode the
test file but immediately bombs out with a couple of cryptic
errors about packets so not quite home yet.

	Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
