> How do you unrevoke a key, especially if it is on the keyservers?

You don't.

Data can only be added to keys on the keyservers.  It can't be  
removed.  This is a deliberate design decision on the part of the  
keyservers, and helps to prevent certain kinds of attacks.

However, given that revocations typically happen by adding a  
revocation signature, by removing the revocation signature from your  
own local copy of the key you should be able to make the key usable  
again.
