This message means that either the portage tree contains the wrong
checksum for a valid file, or that the file on your mirror has been
replaced by an altered version. Redigesting to fix this problem is like
fixing low oil pressure in your car by disconnecting the warning light.

By all means feel free to take his risk on your own system, but please
don't recommend others to do it without at least pointing out the
potentially serious consequences.

To the OP, it is possible that the Firefox archive was updated and you
still have an older one in $DISTDIR. Try deleting your copy and emerging
again. You could also try using a different mirror.
