Ha, sure enough.  Looks like that was quite a few years ago.  I won't guess how 
many people are still using PGP 8, but if they're out there, they're likely not 
using it to interoperate with people using smartcards.  Given the lack of bug 
reports since this change way back in 2009, I'll go out on a limb and wager 
that the intersection between PGP 8 users, if they still exist, and smartcard 
users isn't exactly large.
