Peter Vrabec at Redhat found that my patch was incomplete:

Your patch did not help me. Problem still persists.
cpio: OOo_2.0.0_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz: checksum error (0x332bf3b47, should
be 0x32bf3b47)
It's because:
copyin.c:1585
if (crc != file_hdr.c_chksum)
crc is unsigned long and file_hdr.c_chksum is truncated by your patch.
His corrected patch is attached.
The Redhat bug id for this issue is 171649.
The Debian bug id is 335580.
