If the MD5 sums are the same on both sides, the files' contents are the
same. It's likely something to do with permissions or some other
metadata. Probably permissions. (which a naïve installer might report
as 'corrupted', if it doesn't check explicitly for permissions first.)
Kinda curious how you're running a Win32 .exe on FreeBSD, but maybe that
adds another point of failure.
