In what way? I can verify Mika's signatures just fine.  The signatures
are valid.

Why does Mikka's not? It's not impossible for someone to have a trust
path to Mikka. Albeit one step removed, since the signing key he uses
has one signature, from another of his keys - but that one has at
least one. (I haven't managed to construct a trust path to Mikka
myself, since most of the public pathfinder servers don't have his
key)
