Run preflight script fails

A client with a MacBook (10.5.8) is trying to install software updates but all of them get failures whether they are run together or separately. The laptop has been running just fine for months, and installing updates regularly. No new software has been installed since the last update.

The failures are with:
HP Printer Drivers Update (1.1.1)
AirPort Base Station Update (5.5.1)
Quicktime (7.6.6)
Safari (4.0.5)
iTunes (9.1.1)
Security Update 2010-003 (1.0)

All six updates have been run individually with the same error. The full error message looks like this:
"None of the checked updates could be installed.
The following stall step failed: run preflight script for Airport Utility. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

Anyone have any ideas what to do?

MacBook 13", Mac OS X (10.5.8)
