render the secret part of the primary key useless; this is
a GNU extension to OpenPGP and other implementations can
not be expected to successfully import such a key.
See the option ---simple-sk-checksum if you want to import such an
exported key with an older OpenPGP implementation.

@item ---simple-sk-checksum
Secret keys are integrity protected by using a SHA-1 checksum. This
method will be part of an enhanced OpenPGP specification but GnuPG
already uses it as a countermeasure against certain attacks. Old
applications don't understand this new format, so this option may be
used to switch back to the old behaviour. Using this this option
bears a security risk.
