    md5.1: Fix the GNU mode example when using a digest file
    
    The last example in the manpage md5(1) wants to demonstrate
    GNU mode (md5sum), but uses BSD mode (md5) instead.
    
    In GNU mode, the -c option does not compare against a hash string
    passed as parameter. Instead, it expects a digest file,
    as created under the name digest for /boot/loader.conf in
    the example above.
