Well guys, the mystery has resolved itself with the only action by

being an update at the TB end - before doing the tests that were
suggested I updated my version of TB - to Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux

Lanikai/3.1b2pre - whereas I had been running earlier versions of TB
However - one fly remains in the ointment!
If wholly within TB you have a mail on the screen and select
Message->Forward as-> attachment and then send it, signed, to yourself
and receive it back in TB then what I found is that I get the same bad
signature problem - so this is a purely Thunderbird issue that I
believe has been a bug for a long time - this is an easy test anyone
can verify - using HTML mail. Forwarding inline works fine though.
I have not tried this last test with plaintext mail forwarded as
attachment - but this is clearly another bug that ought to be resolved
by TB developers.
