Sounds about right to me anyway, pov patch binaries in p.b.p. (guessing "other"
patches don't apply but nothings mentioned at p.f-a-q.) and announced in p.p.
should be best.  I've had trouble getting a gz file to extract and I've also
heard others have the same problem.  I used to use WinZIP but it didn't work on
some of those and now use ZIP Magic which says it can but I've had the same
problem.  Actually my guess is they were always bad downloads for one reason or
another, or maybe just compressed in an unsupported way.
