Given how little time it took Tim to get libarchive from a simple
prototype that supported tar files to a 23k line library that
supports dozens of variant archive formats, I suspect that the
limitation and the corresponding hack will be temporary. :) And if
it is just a small number of ports, it could be set up as an
extract dependency in the individual port makefiles, right?  It's
not as though InfoZIP is going to change a lot in the near future.
