Except then I lose any trust values I had assigned to keys. For
example, when I read an encrypted message in mutt, I get the following
warnings:

gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted
signature! 
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
gpg: WARNING: message was not integrity protected

But because I had assigned a trust level (and maybe another trick or
two, I don't remember for sure), when the old trustdb is in place that
message doesn't appear. I know, I could edit those keys all over again
and assign trust values, but I was hoping to avoid that.

Thanks,
Jacob
