prelink changes file size and md5sum

I am using FC3 and notice very wired behavior.  The rpm -q --dump output is inconsistent with actual file attribute.

# rpm -q --dump glibc | grep lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so
/lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so 1451615 1103537616 3f269651d6f0953ce3f753760efa5026 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X
# ls -l /lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 1454835 Dec 20 02:13 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so
# md5sum /lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so
d6abef51fef1c5df35398f5fff34b714  /lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so

The funny thing is that rpm -qV glibc doesn't report any md5sum inconsistent.  It takes me 2 days and finally find out the different file size and different md5sum is caused by prelink daily cornjob ( /etc/cron.daily/prelink ).  I wonder why md5sum and file size are different from rpm -q --dump output?  Can someone explain to me?
