I just acquired a Quadra 800 specifically for use as a NetBSD machine (I
traded a Q950 for it).  I installed version 1.3.3, the latest formal
distribution.  Then, to install some of the packages, so that I can get the
computer to act as an Internet server (e-mail, HTTP, FTP), I downloaded the
current pkgsrc.tar.gz file from ftp.netbsd.org.  Once the files were fully
extracted I tried to install Lynx for Web browsing.  It stopped with an
error message saying that I had to install the current version of
pkg_install, so I tried.

Here's where the real problem happened.  Executing just a "make" works
fine, but during "make install" it errors out with a "Syntax error: end of
file unexpected (expecting "fi")" message.  My guess is that a file is
truncated, but which one and how do I get the complete file?

Here is the complete terminal output from running "make install" in the
pkg_install directory:
