Introducing another knob to the build system seems cubersome. I remembered that hash checking would be skipped if PKG_MD5SUM var was empty and the behaviour is very likely the same with PKG_HASH. The workflow can be simply emptying PKG_HASH var while bumping the versions, then do the download and hash fixup on the second command. This should eliminate the need for SKIPHASH var.
