I see there's a lot of discussion going on about this bug, I'll just drop in my 5c:

I cleanly installed/updated a x64 Karmic w/ext4 filesystems on my MacBook 5,1 (no other OSes installed).
Due to the nature of my work I downloaded over a dozen ISO's of different HTTP/FTPs, none of which failed their MD5 sums.

Yesterday, I cleanly installed/updated a x32 Karmic on some measly Centrino/Pentium M 1,6 Ghz laptop and copied, amongst others, 7 DVD ISO's to it from an external NTFS harddrive, with no apparent issue or corruption (though I'd have to check the MD5's to make absolutely sure).

So for me, this issue doesn't seem to exist. Then again, both filesystems are clean-and-simple 3 primary partition layouts (10GB /,RAM*1~1,5 swap, remainder /home, handmade during install), no hw/sw RAID/LVM or whatever.
