The download link for scons-2.3.5.tar.gz now delivers a file with md5
checksum 8b0d1041266f89b18e47f26d943f8aa5 instead of
a8988c7ef11133bb3b6ccf0af67ce010 as stated in the book.

But the version of this file in the mirror at
ftp://ftp.lfs-matrix.net/pub/blfs/ has the original checksum as per
the book.  Comparing the two I find:

  BLFS:
    date: 2015/06/18 06:53:27
    revision: pchdll:3325:cd517fae59a4
    man pages: present but empty

  current download:
    date: 2015/06/20 11:18:26|
    revision: rel_2.3:3329:275e75118ad4
    man pages: present and complete

Googling the  checksums shows that  distros everywhere have  picked up
the same  version as BLFS.   So now we  have this odd  situation where
people are  using the same  version as  us but the  canonical download
link returns something different.  What should we do?

Incidentally, the scons man page is  very large (~ 1/2 MB) which means
that the current download is rather  larger than the BLFS version.  It
is also slightly larger than the previous point version in BLFS, which
is what I would expect from a point version upgrade.
