Although I applaud that the update is validated, be aware that that
requires that the update is generated by makenl. Some RC's collate their
segement by other means and do not provide a valid CRC in the first line.
On the other hand, it would force the nodelist administrators to subit a
proper segement. There are tools, that can do a validation and deliver
a proper file, quite irrespective of what is submitted.
