In a 6328 image, "download into cache" followed by opening the .zip file in 
the ArchiveViewer works OK.

So you might want to do this ("force download", "browse cache", then "install" 
from the file list).

However, the SARInstaller doesn't work right (I got the same error).

There are two problems; one is that m17n changes have broken Steven's 
extension for the SARInstaller.

The problem is that streams have changed so that if you use the old open or 
create methods the assumption is that the streams are text, and will have a 
UTF8TextConverter attached that will damage binary data.

So you'll see patterns now like:

 stream := FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: 'xxx'.
 stream converter: Latin1TextConverter new.
 stream binary.

Perhaps #binary on MultiByteFileStream should also set the textConverter to a 
Latin1TextConverter.

Yoshiki, would this break anything?
