md5sum failures on some files in the repository

The following files in the cygwin repository have persistent md5sum
errors:

release-2/binutils/binutils-2.19.51-1-src.tar.bz2
release-2/GNOME/libgnomeui2/setup.hint
release-2/GNOME/libgnome2/setup.hint
release-2/GNOME/libgtkhtml2/setup.hint
setup-2.bz2.sig
setup-2.ini.sig
setup.bz2.sig
setup.ini.sig
 
I have tested the following two mirrors:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/cygwin
http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/cygwin
 
The binutils problem has been reported before:
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2009-10/msg00301.html

These problems were detected by checking the md5sum of every file in the
archive. All files not named here passed the check.
 
Could someone please investigate the cause of these problems and correct
them so that the md5.sum files match the computed checksums?

Thanks,
Ben Stanley.
