I don't know if it is still like it, but at one time pgp and gnupg
used different symmetric algorithms for encrypting private keys. The
solution is to remove the passphrase using gnupg and then put it back
using pgp.
I certainly moved a pgp 5 key to gnupg without problems, but I never
tried to do the reverse.
