As I said yes I have done exactly this:
```
gpg --edit-key <key-id>
key 1
revkey
save
```
and is why I supposed a bug in gpg2. After doing so the key reports "no
change". My guess of what the bug is would be when the primary key has
been revoked gpg2 only assumes all subkeys are revoked while not actually
applying subkey revocation packets.
To confirm this bug take a look at the key on
keys.openpgp.org[https://keys.openpgp.org] and see if there are no
revocation packets in the subkey.
