The XOR algorithm I posted above is definitely the algorithm (the disassembly from several disassemblers show the same). However, it never seems to work right against a race file. I suspect there is some initialized/default data that is added to the in-game race data struct after a file is read in, and then that is checksummed. But I'm still unsure...
