With the md5 in the link, the .md5 file isn't fetched: X.zip is downloaded and checked against the link's md5. Older PortMasters (no ?md5= support) fetch the .md5 file and then X.zip from the same link, so DeviceHub can send this one form to every PortMaster version and have the download checked either way.

Before, both were fetched and had to agree.
