thanks for digging that up.

Nice catch!  I think this would be a good errata item for the RFC.  
http://www.rfc-editor.org/how_to_report.html

I've now reported it:

Has anyone else tried to implement this corner of the spec?  If so, how
did you handle subkey revocation signatures?  I'd like to be more
confident that we aren't breaking interoperability with anyone by making
this clarification (though arguably the interoperability is probably
already broken if anyone was writing to spec).
