Subkeys.pgp.net is a rotation that's been a bit buggy of late.
Of the 5 IPs in it right now:
- 2 respond to pings, but not connections
- 1 totally unreachable
- 2 that work, but have slightly different versions of my key.

The SKS rotation seems to be much better, and kingtaco was looking at
running an additional SKS instance within Gentoo as our offical key
point (also useful for speeding up fetching keys in verification).
