There is an alternative format for defining the signature,
shown in this variation of your example:
\new Staff {
\set Staff.keySignature = #'( ((1 . 4) . 2) ((1 . 1) . 2) )
b4 c' dis' e' f' gis' a' b'
c'' dis'' e'' f'' gis'' a'' b''
\set Staff.keySignature = #'( (4 . 2) (1 . 2) )
b4 c' dis' e' f' gis' a' b'
c'' dis'' e'' f'' gis'' a'' b''
}
You can read all the settings there:
