Yes, 141 means that SIGPIPE was delivered.  This in turn means that
'tar -xf -' exited before gunzip had finished its job and gunzip had
tried to write more data to the pipe.

Could I ask to do some debugging:

1. run 'gunzip -c  ooo_crystal_images-1.tar.gz > crystal.tar'
2. run 'cat crystal.tar | (tar -xf -) && echo OK' and look for the results.
3. do 'md5 ooo_crystal_images-1.tar.gz'

For the last point, I have
-----
MD5 (ooo_crystal_images-1.tar.gz) = ff0d576d4b0e71c268b1516095a3d085
-----
but this tar.gz was taken from OOO 3.x.  If yours have some other
checksum, could you place it somewhere where I can download it?

My .tar.gz unpacks without any errors, but my -CURRENT is from 3rd of May.

Thanks!
