    Bug 20954: Checking OS X bundles with sha256sum does not work
    
    Due to Apple's codesigning requirement one can't simply compare hash
    values to check whether a self-compiled bundle is matching the one we
    ship. Yet our documentation seems to imply that. We should point this
    problem out for now until we come up with a better solution.
