Frugalware switched to using sha1sums, so that is a big reason. If you can find a good reason to pull support for it, let us know, but as of right now I don't see a reason to remove it, even if we don't use it. Any other distribution using pacman may want to use it, so the option is there.
i think if you generate those arrays using makepkg -g then it doesn't make sense. it's useful when upstream provides sha1sums in the website then you can copy&paste it to the buildscript thanks, VMiklos -- developer of Frugalware Linux - http://frugalware.org
