OK, I'll provide [file].cookie with [file]'s MD5Sum.  But we will need to
migrate to using the signatures:  a simple md5sum doesn't pass muster.

If it helps, here's a quick-n-dirty sample of how to check a signature:

gpg -q --batch --verify winetest-20040323-2314.zip.sig >/tmp/gpg 2>&1 || 
(echo "Bad signature, gpg reported:"; awk '{print "  ",$0}' /tmp/gpg)
