The version of gnupg on my testing system is 1.2.3. I'd assume then
that the default must have changed between the version now in stable and
this one.

Yes, I added this line (also renamed options to gpg.conf, as it appears
that this is now the default name).
Most times, I read mail offline, so auto-retrieve doesn't work anyway; I
was mostly just wondering why it did auto-retrieve in stable with no
option to do so, and apparently required specifying the option in
testing. I couldn't find any mention of any change in defaults in the
changelogs.
Thanks for the reply.
