Ryan, I was hesitant to move the /usr/local directory, so haven't
tried it yet.
Mark, you are right, I have no tar utility installed any more for
some reason... Any idea where it is supposed to go? I'm thinking /
usr/bin...
Thanks, I'll try to replace it this evening.

Jesse-
I came across your message on the MacPort mailing
list about your 'gzip pipe' problem when I was
researching a similar problem I was encountering.
That thread pointed me at a solution to my problem
that I wanted to pass on in case yours was caused by
the same thing. What had happened to me is somehow
the 'tar' utility was removed from my system (I think
it might have happened when I updated XTools). Try
running 'tar' from an X11 terminal: if it is not
accessible, you probably have the same problem I did.
To fix, I replaced the tar file (there was a backup
copy in /Previous System/usr/bin - you may have to
find it somewhere else), reran the XTools installer,
and everything was fine.
Hope this helps,
Mark
