@sambles A small tweak to configure.ac to add /usr/local/bin/md5sum in the md5sum check - this check would pass if the user had installed it via apt on Linux or brew on Macs. For Macs, a Brew install is insufficient as a symlink would still need to be created in /usr/local/bin, but this is common practice.

This is the ./configure check before the change:

checking Check for /usr/bin/md5sum ... no
...

This is the same line after the change:

checking Check for /usr/bin/md5sum or /usr/local/bin/md5sum ... yes

Whether this makes any difference to the checksums in make test I'm not sure, but it is a friendlier configuration.
