  try to set ACLs even if fflag restore fails, first cut at reading
  Solaris tar ACLs

Code improvement: merge gnu tar read support into main tar reader;
  this eliminates a lot of duplicate code and generalizes the tar
  reader to handle formats with GNU-like extensions.

Style: Makefile cleanup, eliminate 'dmalloc' references, remove 'tartype'
  from archive_entry (this makes archive_entry more format-agnostic)

Thanks to: David Magda for providing Solaris tar test files

* Disabled shared-library building, as some API breakage is
  still likely.  (I didn't realize it was turned on by default.)  If
  you have an existing /usr/lib/libarchive.so.2, I recommend deleting it.
* Pax interchange format now correctly stores and reads UTF8
  for extended attributes.  In particular, pax format can portably
  handle arbitrarily long pathnames containing arbitrary characters.
* Library compiles cleanly at -O2, -O3, and WARNS=6 on all
  FreeBSD-CURRENT platforms.
* Minor portability improvements inspired by Juergen Lock
  and Greg Lewis.  (Less reliance on stdint.h, isolating of
  various portability-challenged constructs.)
* archive_entry transparently converts multi-byte &lt;-&gt; wide character
  strings, allowing clients and format handlers to deal with either
  one, as appropriate.
* Support for reading 'L' and 'K' entries in standard tar archives
  for star compatibility.
* Recognize (but don't yet handle) ACL entries from Solaris tar.
* Pushed format-specific data for format readers down into
  format-specific storage and out of library-global storage.  This
  should make it easier to maintain individual formats without mucking
  with the core library management.
* Documentation updates to track the above changes.
* Updates to tar.5 to correct a few mistakes and add some additional
  information about GNU tar and Solaris tar formats.

Notes:
* The basic 'tar' reader is getting more general; there's not much
  point in keeping the 'gnutar' reader separate.  Merging the two
  would lose a bunch of duplicate code.
* The libc ACL support is looking increasingly inadequate for my needs
  here.  I might need to assemble some fairly significant code for
  parsing and building ACLs. &lt;sigh&gt;

Portability: Thanks to Juergen Lock, libarchive now compiles cleanly
on Linux.  Along the way, I cleaned up a lot of error return codes and
reorganized some code to simplify conditional compilation of certain
sections.

Bug fixes:
  * pax format now actually stores filenames that are 101-154
    characters long.
  * pax format now allows newline characters in extended attributes
    (this fixes a long-standing bug in ACL handling)
  * mtime/atime are now restored for directories
  * directory list is now sorted prior to fix-up to permit
    correct restore of non-writable dir heirarchies

What it is:
   A library for reading and writing various streaming archive
   formats, especially tar and cpio.  Being a library, it should
   be easy to incorporate into pkg_* tools, sysinstall, and any
   other place that needs to read or write such archives.

Features:
  * Full automatic detection of both compression and archive format.
  * Extensible internal architecture to make it easy to add new formats.
  * Support for "pax interchange format," a new POSIX-standard tar format
    that eliminates essentially all of the restrictions of historic formats.
  * BSD license

Thanks to: jkh for pushing me to start this work, gordon for
  encouraging me to commit it, bde for answering endless style
  questions, and many others for feedback and encouragement.

Status: Pretty good overall, though there are still a few rough edges and
  the library could always use more testing.  Feedback eagerly solicited.
