Apparently the only problem is an extra CRLF sequence at the end of each
line.  Resulting in output like this:

*** END OF DATA

*** CRC:F001

This would explain why binhex couldn't find the checksum.  Anyway, I
deleted the blank lines and the 'broken' file (dataflow.hcx in this case)
worked fine.  

I suggest modifying binhex so that blank lines are ignored, it possible,
as the superfluous CRLF problem is a common one when transferring files
between operating systems.
