The package.xml example given at 
<http://pear.php.net/manual/en/guide.developers.package2.php>  uses the 
following for its file tag:

    <file name="Dependency2.php" role="php"> 
     <tasks:replace from="@PEAR-VER@" to="version" type="package-info"/> 
    </file> 

In contrast, PEAR 1.4.11 <http://pear.php.net/package/PEAR>  uses this:

   <file md5sum="b309a1eb31b2826cd1cec229fb352eb0" name="OS/Guess.php" 
role="php"> 
    <tasks:replace from="@package_version@" to="version" 
type="package-info" /> 
   </file> 

Which one is correct?  Is the md5sum attribute needed or not?

Also, the first example seems to specify subdirs via nested dir tags - 
not by having their path in the name attribute as the second one does.  
eg.  The first one would seem to suggest that this is the way to do it:

  <dir name="/"> 
    <dir name="OS"> 
      <file name="Guess.php" ...> 
      ...
      </file> 
    </dir> 
  </dir> 

...whereas the latter would seem to suggest this:

  <dir name="/"> 
    <file name="OS/Guess.php" ...> 
    ...
    </file> 
  </dir> 

Also, I note that PEAR includes both v1 and v2 of package.xml (albeit 
with different names).  Any ideas as to why?
