I was struggling internally with this one, because the tools currently
in use are FreeBSD-specific (md5 vs md5sum on Linux), and I would like
to be able to have a portable, reproducible release build procedure. I
can add them, but I would like to have a better solution in the future.
(For example: We consider the md5 file not part of the release but part
of the FTP server. Then moving a release onto the FTP server causes the
md5 file to be created.)

Done. I'll also add that to the build scripts for the new alpha.
