Unfortunately, nobody has a good algorithm for creating a file that has the
same MD5 hash as a given existing file.  So while I *can* create two files
"foo1" and "foo2" that happen to have the same hash (the actual value of which
I have no control over), I can't (yet) create a file that has the same MD5 hash
as the trailer for the next Star Wars movie...
