   well, in the end the tar format is not meant to store file names in the name 
field with a multi-byte encoding. The few docs that one can find talk about 
"local variant of ASCII" and the UTF16 test only worked by accident before the 
change.
   
   I'll change the docs in either case, discouraging the use of multi-byte 
encodings and change the test to use codepage 1252 or something like that. And 
then I'll try to think about a proper - ideally backwards compatible - 
extension of ZipEncoding that would  help us here.
