If signature files are larger than SIZE_MAX, not enough memory could be allocated for this file. The script repo-add rejects files which are larger than 16384 bytes, therefore handle these as errors here, too.
While at it, I also rearranged the code to avoid a quite harmless TOCTOU race condition between stat() and fopen().
