Looks to me like this bug can be closed. Bdale, do you agree?
liw@mavolio$ mkdir foo
liw@mavolio$ touch foo/one
liw@mavolio$ touch foo/two
liw@mavolio$ printf 'one\0' | tar -C foo --null -T - -cf - | tar -tvf -
-rw-rw-r-- liw/liw 0 2011-12-07 08:07 one
liw@mavolio$
Seems to work just fine.
However, the --help output should first be fixed to remove the note that
--null resets -C, since that seems to be outdated now. The info
documentation seems to be correct here.
