>Description:
md5 -p option corrupts stdout pipe data with chksum. it would be more
useful to output chksum to stderr, so one could do:
tar czBf - dir|md5 -p|ssh otherhost 'md5 -p|tar xzBpf -'
and get two checksums to compare, vs a
"gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored"
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
diff -u /usr/src/sbin/md5/md5.c md5.c
