Both v4? Only one key file is named v4.

You are downgrading the hash algo here and in the other regenerated
signatures. This is not wrong per-se, I'm just wondering whether it is
intentional (or forced by the standard) when the aim of this series is
future-proofing. sha256 is the current "replacement" for sha1, which
means it's the one which will be replaced next ;)
