[CentOS] Several files's checksum change without reason

Hi list,
I'm a bit worried here. On a server, Centos 4.3 fully-patched SELinux 
activated, Osiris (a decentralized scanner for files changes on distant 
servers) signaled me several changes on files who were not (at first 
sight) affected by a recent update (the list is below).
Is there a logic explanation for those changes to happen ? The "rpm -Va" 
command does not output md5sum change for those files.

             host: server
      scan config: server (abcdefg)
         log file: no log file generated, see system log.
    base database: 56
 compare database: 57
