GPG 1.3.1: Can't import key

Last night I compiled GPG 1.3.1 on MacOS 10.2.2.
Works fine until now.
On verifying the signature on David's recent posting my Mail-Plugin got
stuck, so I tried to import his key 0x10F4B2AA on the commandline.
It seems to hang too.
No matter if I try "gpg --recv-key 0x10F4B2AA" or
"gpg --import" and paste the key from
<http://keyserver.kjsl.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=3Dget&search=3D0x10F4B2AA>
it doesn't finish (for a long time, maybe I quit too early).
If I type=20
gpg --recv-key -vvv 0x10F4B2AA
the last line printed is (one line)
gpg: pub 4096G/10F4B2AA 2002-05-23 David Pic=A2n =B5lvarez (High
Security) <eleuteri@sdf.lonestar.org>
nothing happens for about 90 seconds, then it complets with
gpg: key 10F4B2AA: "David Picon Alvarez <eleuteri@myrealbox.com>" not
changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: unchanged: 1
Now typing=20
gpg --edit-key 0x10F4B2AA
prints the three lines warning and then waits for 30 seconds before
displying the key-data.
The Mail-Plugin (EntouragGPG) still can't verify the signature. It blocks
until the timeout.
This is my ~/.gnupg/options file:
no-greeting
default-recipient-self
escape-from-lines
charset iso-8859-1
utf8-strings
lock-once
keyserver keyserver.kjsl.com
keyserver-options
auto-key-retrieve,no-honor-http-proxy,
no-include-revoked,no-include-disabled
pgp6=20
load-extension /usr/local/lib/gnupg/idea
show-photos=20
I also tried
gpg --recv-key --charset utf-8 -vvv 0x10F4B2AA
it produces a 90 second delay as well.
Problem with GPG 1.3.1, my prefs, the keyserver or is it Mac specific?
