[gensync] error generating checksum?

I just built a new package and went to create the database and this is what it said:

gensync: building database entries, generating md5sums...
gensync: error generating checksum for /var/abs/local/etherwake-1.09/PKGBUILD

What could that mean?  Here is the PKGBUILD file.

# Contributor: Todd Eddy <vr@SPAMBADvrillusions.com>
pkgname=etherwake
pkgver=1.09
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="This program generates and transmits a Wake-On-Lan (WOL) 'Magic Packet', used for restarting machines that have been soft-powered-down (ACPI D3-warm state).  It currently generates the standard AMD Magic Packet format, with an optional password appended."
url="http://www.scyld.com/wakeonlan.html"
depends=(glibc)
source=(ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/diag/ether-wake.c)
md5sums=('15fe21b9cac19a79649c41fa7919e888')

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/
  gcc -O -Wall -o ether-wake ether-wake.c || return 1
  mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
  cp ether-wake $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
}

Feel bad that I already uploaded this to incoming but if it can't generate the checksum properly I doubt it would actualy get thrown into the extra section.  Any ideas?
