I think that special-case if a few lines below is OK for now.

This char is actually from Junios original code. I think we can afford
three chars. This could be changed if we ever need more than that. Another
possible future feature would be to distinguish between "no signature" and
"public key not found" and to allow pass-through of that GPG "retrieve
missing public keys from keyserver" option.

Correct. Also, BADSIG is never followed by trust information.

Actually, we are searching *all* GPG status lines for every search string
in the array. This way, first GOODSIG may be matched to fill in the key
and signer information, but a subsequent TRUST_* match finally sets the
result code.
