Hmm, you had 3.1.3, but which libarchive version? As Dan previously stated, the main reason for 3.1.4 release was this commit : http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=pacman.git;a=commitdiff;h=3fe43ffa04efd...
Logs are attached. As can be seen from upgrade.log pacman makes a wrong decission when comparing existing, new and original md5sums (original is empty).
pacman didn't make a wrong decision, the problem is indeed that the original md5sum is empty. This could for example be caused by the bug fixed by the above commit.
