The script that generates the -dev book daily generates the tarballs and updates 
the md5sums in the book.  We don't do that for -rc releases.  The final release 
will have the tarball md5sums hard coded.  The differences in md5sums can be 
attributed to the dates of the directories within the tar files.

If we do a -rc2, I'll update the md5sums in that version.
