I found this on the the source control diaries: "2004-08-20 19:42:03 EDT; Nate Riffe; Makesums for rawwritewin All I did was run 'make makesums'. I haven't verified squat about this modified upstream file. I suspect that anyone meticulous enough to verify the pristine non-infected non-trojaned integrity of everything they run on their Windows system will do so themselves for this program all on their own, without the use of our checksums. I also suspect that such people are quite few in number, and that the vast majority of Windows systems have far darker demons lurking than whatever might conceiveably be concealed in this modified zip file." As it happens, I am the author of rawwritewin. I modified the .zip file to include the file COPYING which is a copy of the GPL. Nothing malicious going on.
