I narrowed the problem down to the FileFooterBlock (Block 0), which I think only contains the checksum of the file. Also I just found this:

https://starsautohost.org/sahforum2/index.php?t=msg&goto =20819&rid=1807

Which shows someone else already found that out and created a (now defunct) utility. I'm not sure what checksum algorithm is used yet, or what portion of the file data is checksummed. I'll have to experiment unless wumpus comes along to release his code sooner...
