-r-xr-xr-x  1 bin  bin  40960 Sep  8 23:31 /usr/sbin/pkg_add

>Description:

	typing control-C just after pkg_add starts causes it to
	remove the current directory. which really sucked because
	i had done about 8 hours work for a thesis due tomorrow!!! argh!

>How-To-Repeat:

565:scry:k_disam$ pkg_add ftp://ledge.dstc.edu.au/pub/freebsd/packages/All/emacs-19.31.tgz
^CSignal 2 received, cleaning up..
^CUnable to open table of contents file `+CONTENTS' - not a package?
566:scry:k_diasm$ ls
ls: .: No such file or directory

and yep - it was gone
