So I've fixed those two warnings. But my guess is that the error is due to the following line * Tar: (tar). Making tape (or disk) archives. The node name is missing (after the closing parenthesis), which is allowed, although less common. That's my best guess, anyway. I don't know if you have any way of testing the code in the SVN repository?
