While I find the above behavior odd, I have to caution you
that the PAL site is not ready at this point. It is somewhat
unfortunate that availability was inadvertantly announced
before we had a chance to get all of our ducks lined up.
At any rate, we're having a few hiccups getting the zip file
transmitted properly to the ftp site, and it's likely to take
a few days to get the kinks worked out.
I'll post a message to this group when everything looks a-ok.
I apologize for any inconvenience that may have been
caused.
BTW, I believe the tar file for the SPARC and HP compilers
is in working order at this point.
