Looks like it's not a staging issue but installation. jxpiinstall-6u10-fcs-bin-b29-windows-i586-06_aug_2008.exe from /net/koori.sfbay.sun.com/jdk/6u10/latest/bundles/windows-i586 is not signed as well.
Comments
EVALUATION RE will manually sign this in 6u10. We will fix it in the Makefile in 6u11.

EVALUATION I think the problem is the order. We copy the online installer to jxpiinstall.exe. In 6u7, I believe we do it after the online installer is signed. In 6u10, we must do it before.

EVALUATION This was not introduced in b29. I just checked b29, and it is also not signed.
