Perfectly normal if you Zcat a compressed binary file.

Why conclude that ? cpio on a compressed cpio archive will fail. Can you
copy /cdrom/x25_9_2/sparc/SUNWlicsw/reloc.cpio.Z to /tmp and simply do
uncompress /tmp/reloc.cpio.Z ?
Have you tried installing X.25 9.2 the "right" way i.e. with the tool on the
Solstice CD - from 9.1 on it actually works quite well - better than any
previous versions. Of course, maybe Sun broke it for 9.2 - wouldn't surprise
me :-)
