All the better to make Sirius seem good in Harry's eyes later by getting him to sign it - oh, yes, they accept signitures from wanted criminals (above the Minister) for permission slips to Hogsmeade! Sure Sirius is his godfather, but still... Sometimes the plotpoints have to override the logic...
Right. I'm sure it wouldn't attract too much attention to Sirius when he signed that permission slip. Plus it wasn't even the Dursleys fault that they didn't sign the slip. Harry ran away.
But wait, Harry is always blameless because he is full of pure...er...love.
