I only got a Processed: message of the reassignment and grave severity. The rest

This is really a good point. So this is no RC bug for enigmail. But *if* this is
a bug of gnupg it would still be valid and *grave*.

I would suggest to verify this with gpg only. Maybe the problem can be isolated
and reproduced by invoking a long write operation on the key-store while
upgrading the gnupg binary. If we have luck, the gpg operation will
fail/break/segfault/stall or something and keep a tmp file inside the .gnupg
directory.
