Suggestions for improving GNU tar.
* <45BEC0DB.8040903@unix-beratung.de>
* Incorporate fixes from major distributions, e.g., Debian GNU/Linux.
* Add support for restoring file time stamps to sub-second resolution,
if the file system supports this.
* Add support for restoring the attributes of symbolic links, for
OSes like FreeBSD that have the lutimes and lchmod functions.
* --append should bail out if the two archives are of different types.
* Add support for a 'pax' command that conforms to POSIX 1003.1-2001.
This would unify paxutils with tar.
* Interoperate better with Joerg Schilling's star implementation.
* Add an option to remove files that compare successfully.

It would be useful to be able to use '--remove-files' with '--diff',
to remove all files that compare successfully, when verifying a backup.
* Add tests for the new functonality.
* Consider this:

Subject: TAR suggestion...
Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 18:26:36 -0500 (EST)
What I would like to do is:
foo my.tar.gz | tar -xzOf - | tar -cMf - -L 650000 - | bar
where 'foo' is a program that retrieves the archive and streams it
to stdout and bar is a program that streams the stdin to CDR.
