That's a bug specific to FDINST. FDNPKG works fine. In fact, the bug is 
present in the source code of both (since they share most of code), but 
it becomes a bug only when int is 16bit. That good old 'int is not 
32bit' never sleeps... always ready to bite one in the bum when least 
expected.

I fixed it in the devel version, you can grab it here:
gopher://gopher.viste.fr/1/temp

I do not not release anything public yet, just in case you find another 
trouble within the hour :)

FWIW, this latest version contains the following changes:
  - FDINST returns non-zero error code if package fails to be installed,
  - FDINST do not freezes on stored files that are more than 32K in size,
  - files that fail extraction are removed (were being left corrupted).

cheers,
Mateusz
