I just tried to open my .gnupg/pubring.gpg and got
'File exists but cannot be read'.

It's not a permission problem.  I own the file and mode is 600.  And if I 
change it to 644 I still get the same message.  I think emacs is confused 
because it's binary.

That appears to be a bug in epa-file-handler (see the entry on
file-name-handler-alist).
