I'm not entirely sure any more, but this rings some bell in the back
of my mind that old PGP versions may return "failure" exit codes
when encryption succeeds, but the recipients' keys weren't
completely valid.  So, yes, I think there was some reason for doing
it this way.

(On the other hand -- who uses PGP 2.6 any more?)
