Summary:  inconsistant hash of odd sized files w.r.t. other clients

Original Submission:  It looks like we need padding with null bytes for 
calculating the md4 hashes. I am downloading a file with an odd size: 187703295 
bytes (lastexile). I get an error for incorrect md4 for the last block over and 
over again. After adding one null byte to the file, the last md4 matches the 
md4 it was looking for...
I don't know if the padding needs to be a multiple of 2 bytes or more.
