Strange, it does appear to be what you say. The issue seems to be with the closing of the ftp connection at the end of the download. I also experienced the same problem from a rh9 box at my office on Friday (also behind a firewall), yet I was able to manually download the original openpkg sh script without trouble. I'll have to try and find another mirror or perhaps an http mirror which may avoid this problem.
