Hello Roberto - I'm assuming that this change is because you want to
print the keysig in patch 3/5. I don't see where we are currently trying
to print the keysig, so I'll wait until you resubmit this patch set to
merge this one.

Along with what a patch does, please try to explain why it is useful in
the commit message.
