Peter Lee commented on COMPRESS-603:
------------------------------------
I created foo.tar with GNU tar, and the expander works well.
I will try to reproduce this issue with BSD tar.
> Expander does not support archives with archive entries beginning with ./

> Suppose I create a tar file from a directory like so:

> complain.
