Oh okay, took a dog-walk for it to register: in rpm5 RPMSIGTAG_PADDING is used
for the actual padding between the signature and main header, which is
different from rpm.org's RPMSIGTAG_RESERVEDSPACE. From the initial description
of #183 I assumed it was essentially the same and, I admit, didn't bother with
the other details you provided later. So it's different, in a number of ways,
my bad for assuming otherwise.
But in that case, calling headerReload() again after adding the padding tag
seems wrong, it's just that the second call doesn't actually seem to do much
anything so it ends up being harmless. This is true of rpm.org's headerReload()
as well BTW - it only works once to actually pull it all into that single
contiguous region. I seem to recall running into that once or twice but never
got around to look into it just then, there hasn't been much of a reason to
bother.
