If we want the checksums after signing we should exclude them at 
 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/default/release/signing/Makefile#l285
If we don't want them then they need adding to
 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/default/release/signing/download-exclude.list

I think we should keep them.  That also means re-generating them for signed bits.

We sign checksums files in the signing on demand world. Fixed by bug 509158.
