It is worth nothing that I also talked to mcf off list and he said
getting a finished implementation of pax might be an even better option
as that is a posix standard we don't implement. The idea would then be
to share the code from pax and tar somehow.

Before that happens it might be relatively harmless to merge these though.

thanks :)
