is pgp compromised?

PGP is a packaging method. Absent grossly incompetent packaging -- and I've never heard claims that PGP or S/MIME were guilty of that -- my sense is that the interesting security mechanisms are the underlying algorithms.

Is there something about PGP that creates different exposures than S/MIME, in terms of those algorithms? (Key management has obvious differences, of course.)
