	I too had this problem (and still do) but found a work around for
it.  Use the '-c' option to ignore CRC checksum errors.  Also use the '-o'
option to specify an output file name since it doesn't seem to be able to do
it on its own.  You can then pretty much ignore the CRC errors that sciibin
spits out.
	An example:

"% sciibin -c -o my_file.shk a_binscii_file.bsc"

	Hope this helps.
