I tried it too:

$ rpm --checksig kernel-headers-2.2.14-12.i386.rpm             
kernel-headers-2.2.14-12.i386.rpm: md5 gpg OK

$ rpm --version
RPM version 3.0.4

$ gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 1.0.2

$ md5sum kernel-headers-2.2.14-12.i386.rpm 
8e86ae48bc41f3dd96908af004a4116c  kernel-headers-2.2.14-12.i386.rpm

Either you downloaded a modified copies of the RPM or you used
textmode for downloading it
