Never mind. MD5 still doesn't work.
Ore more accurately, it generates different values on
a 32-bit architecture than on a 64-bit, and none of
the juggling I have tried has seemed to help.

I spoke with the author, and he came to the same conclusion -
but didn't not have the time or resources to solve the problem.

If anyone out there has gotten a compatible build of MD5
on a DEC alpha, please let me know what to change.

Thanx.
