I used this and added a check for the line to start with a word class
character. I tested some with the official catalogs and it completely
skipped all GPG lines.

Since my testing was limited to removing the error messages I would
appreciate it if you (or someone else on the list) could help test the
latest revision for actually creating catalogs.
