This file *IS* ASCII text, so bin mode should not have made a
difference (i.e. ascii mode should not have caused a problem).  BUT,
did you get the tar.gz file as bin?

Also, I thought i'd mention that I can't download these files from
ftp.mutt.org *at all* but I have no problem getting them from ANY of
the mirrors.  I can ftp to the host just fine, and cd to the right
directory.  But when I try to get the files, my session just hangs...

However, I did download them from a mirror, and got a good sig.
