Hi pi,

A typical pgp signature block looks like:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux)

iD8DBQBAHUWBaTUjGSdb2eIRAuYnAJ9NP7yUiGKL8Xp3cbqJSBVjPbrDjwCeMGZB
SBUICjVBeMmFkmsljrgCpsI=
=9z3S
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Training with pgp signed messages adds tokens that are unlikely to every
again be seen.  The new code recognizes this and ignors those tokens.

It's a feature that has been requested and I was in the mood to do some
new implementation.
