Please use apt-cache show makedev rather than the available file, and
verify the version numbers too. 

Are you certain there is not a problem with your CPU/Memory that could
cause this?

See, the only time bytes are added to the hash is when they are written to
the file, so.. Well, what you are describing is impossible :> I'd like to
see strace -o /tmp/foo -f -ff's -s200 and script logs of an apt-get doing
this. 

I did lots of testing of apt-get and most squids and never once
encountered an MD5 error.
