The global.bki file is not in the archive, it is created by
src/backend/catalog/genbki.sh.  The C preprocessor, sed, and awk are major
links in that chain.  If any source file is corrupted it would be one of
the header files under src/include/catalog.

Btw., there are MD5 sums of the tarballs available.
