I am reasonably sure that I've done update with pgp.mit.edu when I
refreshed the expiration last time, but apparently I didn't update
the in-tree copy.  I doubt that it is a good practice to ship the
public key used to sign things in the repository in the repository
itself, but if are not dropping the tag, I agree I should keep it up
to date.

Thanks.
