Hi. Found this patch today and made a addon package to the plain tar package. I don't think the patch itself messes too much with tar, but you never know. Anyway, I spent the time make the patching and packaging work for this addon, so I guess or hope it's worth looking into.
Patches attached. Chears. -- Regards // Oden Eriksson, Deserve-IT.com
