 Actually, it appears as if thost .qm files may vary each time they're
 fetched - they appear to contain a PHPSESSID that differs.
 
 If that is true, then there's no checksum that will ever be
 able to work,and the correct solution might just be to remove
 those files from the distinfo file completely (and leave the
 DIST_SUBDIR alone).   Either that, or put sanitised copies on
 ftp.netbsd.org and only fetch them from there (which would warrant
 a new DIST_SUBDIR).
