Log message:
Remove message digest algorithms other than SHA-256 for checksumming
distfiles. MD5 is known to be insecure and RIPEMD-160 and SHA-1
are considered inferior to SHA-256.
Also, the concatenation of different hashes is not more secure than
its strongest component; see Antoine Joux, "Multicollisions in
iterated hash functions. Application to cascased constructions"
