This looks like a transmission error, because:
tar tvfz grass_5.0.0-20020507-1_arm.ipk 
-rw-rw-r-- root/root         4 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./debian-binary
-rw-rw-r-- root/root    556483 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./data.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- root/root       522 2002-05-07 17:06:15 ./control.tar.gz

is fine (at least on
http://grass.itc.it/grass5/binary/ipaq_linux/
)
