Details

If you download the libxmlwin32-2.1.1.tar.gz from http://www.ce.berkeley.edu/~doolin/code/libxmlwin32/ mozilla will save it as libxmlwin32-2.1.1.tar.gz but it has uncompressed the file on the way without telling. That is winzip and tar -xvzf will tell you it is corrupted, unless you rename the file to libxmlwin32-2.1.1.tar (or tar -xvf) I've seen this happening in several other places. It doesn't happen for all .tar.gz files though .. no idea why.
