Small update on the upstream issue I opened: there is no way for GnuPG to support keys larger than 4k, although it's a one-line patch. Please read the explanation in the link above. I see two possible outcomes of this: 1) Just add a tiny patch which increase the secure memory to 128k, keep the 16k keys working. 2) Don't do anything, piss off some people, make upstream happy. What do you think? By the way, the best way to do 1) would be to add the patch directly into Debian, so that Ubuntu receive it automatically instead of patching it in Ubuntu and leaving Debian uncovered.
