Could you please run "md5" on the files you got, and send me the
checksums?  Somebody else recently reported the same problem to me.  But
I re-downloaded the files myself, and double-checked them, and their
checksums were OK.  I am wondering whether the new "fetch" program has
some sort of problem with them, and is corrupting them.

Meanwhile, you could either use the CVSup binaries, or grab the Modula-3
package and install that.
