A lot has changed; and, I'd prefer Curt to hold off making a 0.7.9 until
problems like yours are fixed.  There are people out there who just
jump from tarball to tarball, rather than following CVS.

CVS (it'll take you a few weeks to get the hang of typing it right 8-)
is a very efficient method of doing the transfer, but it is not compressed.

When you run cvs over ssh (instead of pserver), you can use compression.
I don't think Curt has set up a cvs-ssh capable guest account on the server;
I suppose we could ask him nicely ...
