Apologies if this has already been fixed, but glancing at the source, probably 
not.

For version 8.22:

$ true > \\
$ md5sum \\
\d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e  \\
$ md5sum < \\
d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e  -

The checksum is not what I would expect, due to the leading backslash.  And in 
any case, the "\d" has no obvious interpretation.  Really, I can't imagine ever 
escaping the checksum.

(Yes, my users are a clever people.)

Cheers,
Mike
