I just tried extracting the contents of these two files:

ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/dif272b.zip
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/dif272d.zip

Neither of them can be opened by winzip or the DOS unzip command.
I tried downloading them repeatedly, from the URLs above and from
another mirror (ftp.bu.edu).  Unzip reported missing bytes in all
cases, but oddly the number of bytes missing appears different
depending on the host site.
