Even if a new public key is added to the keybag, the NSA wouldn't get old messages, only messages from that point forward.
Still troublesome, and I wish there was some way to see what keys are being used and cross verify them with the remote user, so that if a new key is added you would be notified.
But there is no way for Apple to retrieve old messages and send them to the NSA.

So they could have logged the messages, then install a patched iMessage on your phone to send them the key. That is assuming Apple's claim is true at all, and they need this in the first place.
