I'm still a little uncertain that the "pkg fix" problem I am having is 
related to the other recent problems with pkg.opensolaris.org.

For one, I get the same problem going to ipkg. It sounded like one of 
the problems with pkg.opensolaris.org was volume, which I would assume 
is not a problem for ipkg.

Also, the error I am getting is "Read error on tar stream." To me this 
indicates its getting a response from ipkg, just not the right one.

So I did a quick snoop and took a look at the response coming back. From 
what I see, the payload of the HTTP response is the normal header 
fields, then just several packets of 0x00 bytes.

Thoughts?
