Hi,

I encountered a bug in current pdftex-1.40.11 of TeXLive 2010 on the
Win32 platform.

After embedding a /PDF/ graphics with \pdfximage, subsequent
calculations of the checksum with \pdfmdfivesum file {<file>} of the
/same/ file give the wrong result:

D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E

After embedding another /PDF/ graphics its computed checksum has the
same wrong value given above.

Note, that non-PDF graphics (png, jpeg) and the i386-linux platform are
NOT affected.

Regards,
Alexander
