  Modified:    usr.sbin/pkg_install/create  perform.c
  Log:
  Fixed pkg_create to eliminate the limits on the size of the PLIST.
  Formerly, there were limits on both the number of files (hard-coded into
  the program) and the number of characters (because of the ARG_MAX limit
  in exec(2)).  In this new version, the filenames are passed to tar through
  a pipe, using tar's "-T" option, rather than on the command line.
