[self-reply]
Correction: Revoked keys _should be_ _removed_ from the GD, period,
in keeping with its stated goals.
Obviously, the keyholder didn't heed the FAQ and has left 0x3EA5F9EF
on the GD. Unless this is corrected, ldap://keyserver-beta.pgp.com
will incorrectly serve the unrevoked version of the key for the next
6 months.
