It's not clear to me if this will be merged to 4-stable at all. I suggest you use the POSIX/IEEE/Opengroup standardize tool pax(1) for your archiving needs. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=6338 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
