Under Cygwin I get:

bfulgham@bfulgham ~/mlton/runtime
$ md5sum gdtoa.tgz
3cafd2277e481a1e3af2285b4598853e gdtoa.tgz

I'm on the same version:
$ zcat  --version
zcat 1.3.5
(2002-09-30)

Looks like either my version of CVS is mangling the
file, or I'm retrieving the wrong thing.

This is out of CVS today:

In C:\Fulgham\Projects\mlton: cvs -q -z6 update -d -P
CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.mlton.org:/cvsroot/mlton

cvs update: Empty password used - try 'cvs login' with
a real password

P basis-library/integer/int-inf.sml
P basis-library/misc/basic.sml
P doc/changelog
P doc/user-guide/man-page.tex
P man/mlton.1
P runtime/gc.c
U runtime/gdtoa.tgz

Success, CVS operation completed

Not sure why this would differ from yours, unless the
Windows version of CVS (TurtleCVS) is doing something
screwy.

I'll try checking out again using the CYGWIN version
of CVS just in case some kind of character encoding
issue is the problem.
