Can't untar snapshot.. scard missing from CVS?

Hello-

I'm testing the current versions on UnixWare 2.x and have run into
the following problems:

After downloading the nightly snapshot, untar fails with 
"Directory Checksum error". Gunzip is successful, but the tar
fails.

Failing the snapshot extraction, I checked out a clean copy from the
CVS. Configure fails when it hits the "/scard" directory, which is
empty. I touched "/scard/Makefile.in", and configure then ran to completion.

So, two things...
1. Is there a blocksize option on tar when the snapshots were created?
My extract command is: gzcat openssh-SNAP-20020228.tar.gz | tar xvof -
Separately unzipping and untarring gives the same error.

2. Is the /scard stuff missing from the CVS?
I think I saw something about this on the list previously, so forgive
my faulty memory.

I'm very pleased with OpenSSH 3.0.2, and am glad to contribute to 
testing on my platforms.
