As of cpio-2.9, that patch is mostly obsolete. I still think that no_abs_paths_flag should be set by default to "true" in extract mode, see http://git.altlinux.org/people/ldv/packages/?p=cpio.git;a=commitdiff;h=2.6-alt17-20-gf184c20 or http://cvsweb.openwall.com/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/Owl/packages/cpio/cpio-2.9-alt-no_abs_paths_flag.diff?rev=1.1;content-type=text%2Fplain -- ldv
