Summary:                    ExternalProject download error misleading if MD5
check is used
Description: 
If one uses ExternalProject with MD5 check and the download doesn't work (e.g.
no internet connection), then the error message is  misleading. It states that
the MD5 checksum is incorrect, instead of e.g. "unknown host", as it would
without the MD5 check enabled. This is because the MD5 sum is checked in the
file(DOWNLOAD ..) before the error code of the download is checked. Thus the
wrong (/less important) error is shown.
