The integrity of all files is currently being checked. Check one of the readme files that are placed instead of the actual files and you will know more.
The fact that it's still missing 6 weeks after they began checking indicates they can't -- and probably won't -- find a trusted MD5 checksum for it. See http://ftp.gnu.org/MISSING-FILES.README -- Kevin Rodgers
