I reckon that by saying "how good 128 bits MD5 hashes were" you are aware of the recent attacks that make MD5's effective security less than 128-bit. The Wikipedia has a good summary: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5
Thanks for the link. I knew of the attacks but did not know they had gotten so good. But I don't think this applies here, as the hashes I'm looking at are the one used by Unison to identify file contents.
