Now see what you made me do. 8-)

It looks like Aladdinsys re-purposed the extension. That probably
earned them a few more raspberries.
Anyway, my memory is that .sea archives were around before stuffit,
which would be before the PPC platform. Perhaps the current
distributions are being compressed by a version of stuffit that no
longer supports PPC/68K fat? If that's the case, can they be opened
with a fat version of stuffit or expander?
(I own stuffit 4.5 and I've never had problems with netbsd 1.5.x;
haven't tried 1.6.x yet, although I probably will pretty soon, now that
I have broadband access.)
