   Compared to the first version, this patch has an improved commit message and
   generates the md5sum snapshot using
     'find -L $(1) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -r md5sum > $($(PKG)_DIR)/.files$(2).md5;'

But is this better ? Due to not cd-ing into the directory, you will
have full absolute paths in the .md5 file, and adding LC_ALL=C is quite
customary too. Ditto for using | xargs instead of -exec.

   instead of
     'cd $(1); LC_ALL=C find . -type f -exec md5sum {} \; > $($(PKG)_DIR)/.files$(2).md5'

All in all this version, looked better. Any reason for the change ?
