This is my first foray into this territory Etch, as you know, is old. The key used to sign it is now, in all likelihood, expired. It's probably been expired so long, that it's been cleared out of the debian-keyring package. You should probably try and find a source that you trust that tells you what they key for Etch was and then fetch that manually (it may still be on keyservers etc).
