It tuns out that this file (and several others) are empty. $ ls -l /Library/Fonts/Arial -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Aug 22 2005 /Library/Fonts/Arial I expect this is caused by updating 10.4, through 10.5, to 10.6 and Apple changing the Font format. A workaround for me was moving all the zero sized files to a backup location. So ignoring 0 sized files during the installation could work as well.
