try ftp.support.apple.com , in the directory

"/pub/apple_sw_updates/US/Apple II/HyperCard IIGS"

Note the spaces.  There are non-space aliases in each directory, so as 
long as you take it one at a time, you'll get there OK, without having to 
quote the spaces.

I believe this contains the infamous "extra bytes" file, which has a 
header (MacBinary?) before the actual archive.  You'll have to strip the 
header before GSHK will recognize the files.  I think I ended up writing 
some C code to do it--does anyone have any such code handy?
