Hi Myung-Hun KO, [ad 0002] neither you nor Paul have spoken about pros/cons of particular implementation. >From me, I also think that using binary-io makes sense. Your patches are clearly portability fixes and this is what is gnulib for (pros: you'll get another portability fixes from any gnulib user in future). What about switch paxutils/tar source to use binary-io? Pavel
