Yes, it is annoying. I've mentioned the problem here before. I think DRH said he'd fix this, but I guess hasn't yet. The .gz file decompresses OK into a .bin file. But this name extension implies a MacBinary file, which the Mac attempts to decompress again, and again. Once you've decompressed the .gz file, just rename the .bin file to "sqlite3", set execute permission (if not already) and move it to /usr/ local/bin/sqlite3.
