On investigation, it seems that all of the bad sigs (and some good
ones) were sent from my server, which is what I use most of the time.
I haven't yet found a bad signature on mails sent from my desktop
machine. However, both machines have exactly the same mutt *and* gpg
configuration -- they share a home directory, and /etc/Muttrc is
identical on both machines.
