Paulo,
Thanx for your consice answer. I will stick to WINCER and PKCS #7
since WINCER seems more universally useful.

Not all signatures are born equal. SELF_SIGNED generates a PKCS#1 signature 
and WINCER_SIG generates PKCS#7 signature. If you are generating externally 
the signatures you must be aware of it.
