System:
FreeBSD-2.0 from Walnut Creek CDROM.

Problem:
`tar -tvf host:/dev/tape`
gives the error:
"kernel: pid: 2505: tar: uid 0: exited on signal 11"
"tar: can't open host:/dev/tape : input/output error"

I tested 'rsh' and it works OK, so the configs are alright.
I used gdb on tar and things were ok up to the fork()
in 'rtapelib.c' function 'rmt_open()'.  Debugging across
a fork() isn't my specialty yet!

I tried to use -DHAVE_NETDB_H since this is supported, but
this did not help.
Have there been any bug reports, or do I still need to do
more homework?
