Description
I am attempting to add my private key.
I generated it with gpg on Windows and it is attached to my YubiKey Neo.
I don't use my primary key, I use subkeys.
Error: TypeError: ("unknown s2k gnu protection mode: " + n) is not a function

Research direction
Start by reproducing private-key import with a GPG-generated key using subkeys on Windows and a YubiKey Neo. Trace the reported “unknown s2k gnu protection mode” error; the work is done when this key imports successfully without the TypeError.
