As I said before, if you're going that route I'd rather do the same
thing as for autorebase and maintain a list of info files.  This way you
could remove and add individual info files rather than just rebuilding
everything, just the way post-install works on Linux in this case.

You could read the md5sums into variables instead and just compare the
resulting strings within bash.  Otherwise we'd have to add diffutils to
the Base category.

Use /bin/dash if possible.
