Description

In check-release.sh, the invocations for openssl and qgp do not work with Cygwin (text mode), because both programs apparently fail to read binary from stdin (that's a bug in both programs).

For openssl, the simple work around is to pass the filename as parameter instead of redirecting stdin.

For gpg, I haven't figured out yet how to fix it.

(Fixing the openssl invocation at least makes 2 out of 3 hashes match)
