What is the point to checksum_seed? When reading/writing batch, it is initialized to a constant value, otherwise it is initialized to time(NULL). It certainly has no useful cryptographic value :)
I got the go-ahead from the client on my --link-by-hash proposal, and the seed is making the hash unstable. I can't figure out why the seed is there so I don't know whether to cirumvent it in my particular case or calculate a separate, stable hash. -- Jason M.
