I don't know for sure but an educated guess is: PGP has a feature to include X.509 keys into a standard OpenPGP key. It might be that PGP creates a standard OpenPGP key from the pkcs#12 file (which usually means an X.509 key) and also includes the X.509 key into that new OpenPGP key. Hal Finney once sent out a description of this private PGP extension. Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
