OK, I have one sample from a freebsd.org list reader, & Chris 
on this list will send me one too, so thats enough samples Thanks.

Worryingly, I seem to have a zlib problem.
Here below is what I just posted to other list.
I dont currently know if its a problem with my config
or hardware (I just did a cold reboot & fsck) or ...other cause ...

My zlib versions are whatever standard on latest FreeBSD release 7.0
& earlier 6.2. I'll look more at that later.
