OpenPGP Package Signature Hashing Data

RFC 4880 describes the signature package version 4 tag 2 as

- One-octet signature type.
- One-octet public-key algorithm.
- One-octet hash algorithm.
- Two-octet scalar octet count for following hashed subpacket data.
Note that this is the length in octets of all of the hashed
subpackets; a pointer incremented by this number will skip over
the hashed subpackets.
- Hashed subpacket data set (zero or more subpackets).
- Two-octet scalar octet count for the following unhashed subpacket
data. Note that this is the length in octets of all of the
unhashed subpackets; a pointer incremented by this number will
skip over the unhashed subpackets.
- Unhashed subpacket data set (zero or more subpackets).
- Two-octet field holding the left 16 bits of the signed hash
value.
- One or more multiprecision integers comprising the signature.

and I assume that the second-last line simply means to take the string of the hashed subpacket and hash it using the hash algorithm and take the first 2 bytes. however, no matter what I do, I cannot get it.

I generated this fake key a long time ago

what i think they should do:

sha1("\x05\x02\x4e\x41\xd2\x1f") = "52f07613cfd61c80d2343566a8f3f487a0975b80"

\x05 - length of subpacket
\x02 - subpacket type
\x4e\x41\d2\x1f - creation time

edit: :

The concatenation of the data being signed and the signature data
from the version number through the hashed subpacket data (inclusive)
is hashed. The resulting hash value is what is signed. The left 16
bits of the hash are included in the Signature packet to provide a
quick test to reject some invalid signatures.
