Funny thing is, that I now can also use the old keys which have not been
working before. It seems that my initial query has been way too weird. Now
with the shorter (and correct) version even the old keys do work.
In my initial version of the query I did lots of armor/dearmor calls which
were very likely in the wrong place. So, your hint that the use of these
calls is excessive helped me to correct the query.
Running regression tests is not so easy as the distribution I use does not
support it. It seems that they had some trouble to build the software with
the regressions target in make.
