This only really works if you don't mind losing any other keys (than your own).

Export public and secret key and ownertrust

gpg -a --export chris@seagul.co.uk > chrisroos-public-gpg.key
gpg -a --export-secret-keys chris@seagul.co.uk > chrisroos-secret-gpg.key
gpg --export-ownertrust > chrisroos-ownertrust-gpg.txt

Import secret key (which contains the public key) and ownertrust

gpg --import chrisroos-secret-gpg.key
gpg --import-ownertrust chrisroos-ownertrust-gpg.txt
