I now realise that I had seen something like
BASH_BASE_SIZE=0xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
CISCO_AC_TIMESTAMP=0xxxxxxxxxx
CISCO_AC_OBJNAME=12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123
....
# BASH_BASE_SIZE=0x00000000 is required for signing
# CISCO_AC_TIMESTAMP is also required for signing
# comment is after BASH_BASE_SIZE or else sign tool will find the comment

which is not very obvious but may mean that there is a signed checksum.
So perhaps I can't modify the installation script after all.
