If anyone in future wants a solution to this, here is a little script  
that will go through and locally kill any of the bad revisions (that  
are leaves - I assume those are the ones that are causing the warnings).

#! /bin/sh

DB=$1

revs=`mtn automate leaves -d ${DB}`

for r in ${revs} ; do
    if mtn automate certs -d ${DB} ${r} | grep -q 'signature  
"bad"' ; then
        echo "rev ${r} is bad"
        mtn db kill_rev_locally ${r} -d ${DB}
    else
        echo "rev ${r} is good"
    fi
done

This script still needs to be run on every DB in the cloud.  It can  
be run multiple times though...

Be well,
