I've been looking at the portsnap shellscript. This error message is generated
by the shell's built-in test command, specifically '[ -r'. It is looking for a
file that was extracted with tar. So the place to look for the bug is IMO

1) the portsnap script itself (differences between 8.2 and 9?)
2) the sh(1)'s built-in test command (ditto)
3) tar (ditto)

When you run 'portsnap fetch' it downloads a tgz archive and unpacks it with
tar(1). What you could try is to comment out the line 'rm ${SNAPSHOTHASH}.tgz'
in portsnap, and test if the tgz file extracts differently using an
8.2-RELEASE tar and the 9-CURRENT tar.  If so, that would be a bug!
