It should be using the shipped sstate based on the locked-sigs.inc file. I would 
expect it to fail if the signatures didn't match for some reason, but perhaps a 
change went in that changed behavior.

If you see an instance where it is not using the shipped sstate, could you file 
a bug or send an email? I'm really curious as to why it doesn't fail outright, 
because that's the whole point of the locked-sigs.inc file.
