Done! StarBrowser can be installed from SqueakMap again.

While I admit it was pretty stupid from me to not go and actually look 
at the file, I am wondering whether the process cannot be improved a 
little:
(1) it is strange that the error file has exactly the same name, 
leading to this kind of problem. Maybe calling it starbrowser.sar-error 
could give a better indication
(2) maybe it is possible to just display the error, which is also done 
when the network is unavailable.

(You that I should know by now to not do this kind of thing early in 
the morning, but alas... )
