Yep, just sorted it out this morning.

The problem is in the installer. Or the naming of the squeezecenter tar
files and the root directory they contain. 

During the install the installer tries to determine the name of the
directory which the squeezecenter tar file extracts. Either this has
changed or the naming of the tar file has changed, and the code no
longer gets the correct directory name. Thus, when it tries to copy the
contents of that directory into "squeezecenter" nothing gets copied.

The simple workaround is to rename the sqeezecenter tar file so that
its name is the same as the root directory it contains, with .tgz
appended as the filetype. 

One caveat is that simply re-running the installer with the re-named
tar file doesn't seem to work. I presume that the failed installation
has created a file somewhere which re-running the installer doesn't
fix. What I did was to completely re-install freenas again, then run
the installer. This worked for me, and it also survived a re-boot.

A more permanent fix would be to modify the PHP so that it looks into
the tar file to get the exact directory name (e.g. capture the output
of "tar cvf | head -1"). I might look into this, but can't guarantee
anything.
