Collision always exist,
what u don't want is an easy way to locate them!
Know that there is a collision is a normal thing,
be able to fabricate Hundred of them in a couple of minute
(It's NOT possible now with SHA1, but it's becoming just a bit easier..)
So better start now to replace it so if even more serius
problems are founded we will be in a good shiny new boat!
(It will probably also be sunked but we buy time in this way)
