Karl,
Hmmm... maybe a sourceforge mirror issue...
I just downloaded expat-2.0.0.tar.gz from a sourceforge mirror:
% ls -l expat-2.0.0.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 jsacco jsacco 450860 May 31 09:48
expat-2.0.0.tar.gz
% md5sum expat-2.0.0.tar.gz
d945df7f1c0868c5c73cf66ba9596f3f expat-2.0.0.tar.gz
The md5sum matches with what is in the checksum file:
% cat checksums
d945df7f1c0868c5c73cf66ba9596f3f download/expat-2.0.0.tar.gz
