See sum(1): Linux uses 1K blocks by default while Solaris and HP-UX
use 512 byte blocks. If you change 'sum' to 'sum -s' it will pass on
Linux.

That's a self-extracting ZIP archive. The code to unzip the archive
is platform specific but you should be able to extract it with the
regular 'unzip', just ignore the warning about extra bytes at the
beginning of the file.
