md5sum -5 creates a strange error message if the checksum file has a ASCI CR
before LF at the end of the line:
German translation first:
md5sum -c psp-8.60.w2k3.i386.exe.md5sum
: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
: FEHLSCHLAG bei open oder read
md5sum: WARNUNG: die eine aufgeführte Datei konnte nicht gelesen werden
Native translation next:
LANG= md5sum -c psp-8.60.w2k3.i386.exe.md5sum
: No such file or directoryexe
: FAILED open or reade
md5sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 listed file could not be read


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add an extra CR at the end of a md5sum checksum file
2. Use md5sum to verify the checksums

Actual Results:
Poorly designed and poorly spelled error messages appear

Expected Results:
A more comprhensible error message should be output, preferrably without
spelling errors.
