We had the same problem with the lastest version of Mkfs I did for the 
mac68k port.  I hadn't changed anything on my system tools for years, but 
I think someplace along the way a new Stuffit Engine got dropped into my 
system.  I seem to recall Aladdin making some mention about some 
compression incompatibilites around the time of their 5.x release.
