There is another layer to the mismatch beyond the file naming pattern. If all
of the LANG-latest-XXX files were renamed with the LANG-DATE-XXX format of the
files they point to, then at least at certain times (early in the month?) we
would see a mixture of LANG-DATE_IN_THIS_MONTH-XXX dumps and
LANG-DATE_IN_LAST_MONTH-XXX dumps in /latest. However, until all dumps from
this month have been completed, LANG-latest-md5sums.txt will point to
LANG-DATE_IN_LAST_MONTH-md5sums.txt which will only contain the hashes from
last month's dumps.

In other words, the xml dumps in /latest "roll over"/update *individually* as
soon as they are completed, but the md5sums file only updates when all dumps
from that month have been completed.
