I downloaded the file with firefox on linux.  My md5sum agrees with
yours.  I'd say there is a typo on the downloads page as the chance of
an incorrect file with an md5sum which differs by only 2 bits is
astronomically small.

  >>> "%X" % (0x9119625244b17aa35ed94b655a2b2135 ^ 0x9119625244a57aa35ed94b655a2b2135)
  '1400000000000000000000'
