This is an error that just happens sometimes, thats why we do md5sum
checking (you'd be even more confused if it broke halfway through
compiles because half the source was missing, aye?) 

The one on mozilla.org is the correct one, and can be downloaded
manually.  Just -DONT- -EVER-  manually mess with the md5sum of a file,
since that is bound to give you a -Bad- case of problems.

(for all you armchair devs out there. There are cases where doing so
might have been the right thing. Don't do it anyhow.)
