 I've thought about checksums, but my simple experiment shows, that
tag-related (not tip-related, of course) archives give same chsum
after re-downloading in short time. But I don't check it for long-term
stability.

 Ok, other idea: check-out sources (require hg/git as BUILD
dependency, but anyway user will need them to build software by hands)
and check strong checksum of checked out revision (as both DVCS uses
strong checksums as IDs internally).

 It is more complex feature, than adding additional MASTER_SITES, for
sure.
