A tar file that contained all of the binaries would be as large as what
you are now downloading, but, as a single file, would be much more
likely to fail in the download. Unfortunately, slow connections are
just that - but why is Berkeley slow when I just read a Gbyte from Spain
in remarkably little time?
The READLINE thing looks fishy although the text is actually not needed
by you. I will take a look at that.
