Just for the record, due to the way of how OpenPGP hashes files, there's 
plenty of other metadata influencing the final hash e.g. signature 
creation time (I guess it's rather improbable that the attacker would 
control that up to a second precision; it's not a high entropy data 
though; also: some implementations embed nonce data in notations).

Kind regards,
Wiktor
