The PGP desktops exported secret keys are really stupid. And they
even a have kind of exception in rfc4880 which does not rule that
out (section 11.2):
[...] Implementations SHOULD include self-signatures on any user
IDs and subkeys, as this allows for a complete public key to be
automatically extracted from the transferable secret key.
Implementations MAY choose to omit the self-signatures, especially
if a transferable public key accompanies the transferable secret
key.
Now if they would only put the public key before the secret
key. Anyway we now have a workaround for that ugliness.
