Does it seem ok?  Do a "gzmore" on the file if you have it,
or "gunzip < 20030926_0.gz | more" if you don't.

It should start with a list of directory full pathnames starting from
the root of the DLE, not the system.  The directory entries IIRC end
with a "/" also.  This will be followed by the list of files.
