Cf.
<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/solaris/jarsigner.html>:
  "In the manifest file, the SHA digest value for each source file is
the digest (hash) of the binary data in the source file. In the .SF
file, on the other hand, the digest value for a given source file is the
hash of the three lines in the manifest file for the source file."
