Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:1 gk]:
 > I don't think so. IIRC `mar -x` is just extracting the content of the
 MAR files which should not get altered by appending a signature.

 That is correct.  The signatures are in a header block along with some
 other info, but mar -x just skips past that stuff, so the presence or
 absence of a signature should make no difference (there is an offset to
 the MAR file index near the start of the header).
