-O Force the archive to be one volume. If a volume ends prematurely, pax will
not prompt for a new volume.

are too long. Filenames escaping this test are caught later on,
so the bug doesn't cause any breakage.
Document the correct ustar limitations in pax. As I have no access
to the IEEE 1003.2 spec, I can only assume that the limitations
imposed are in fact correct.
Add regression tests for the filename limitations imposed by pax.

wording makes it look like pax archives > 32256 bytes are not
POSIX-compliant! Correct this to state that pax archives with
block sizes > 32256 are not POSIX compliant...and settle our fears.

are:
* Implement cpio compatibility mode when pax is invoked as cpio
* Extend tar compatibility mode to cover many of the GNU tar single-letter
options (bzip2 mode, aka -y/-j is not present in OpenBSD). When
invoked as tar, pax is now full-featured enough for use by the ports
collection to extract distfiles and create packages.
* Many bug fixes to the operation of pax and the tar compatibility modes
* Code fixes for things like correct string buffer termination.
I tried to preserve existing FreeBSD fixes to this utility; please let me
know if I have inadvertently spammed something.

compatibility with GNU tar.
bzip2 functionality for further GNU tar compatibility will be added at a
later date.
Note in the manpage that -z is non-standard.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been

Turns out, it's pretty important if you use PAX for backup. In the man
page for PAX, there is an error (OK, we could call it a "potentially
catastrophic incompleteness"). It reads:
> The command:
>
> pax -r -v -f filename
>
> gives the verbose table of contents for an archive stored in filename.
Yup, it does do that. With a side effect: it also _replaces_ all the
files that come in from the archive. As is my custom, I did my
backup-validation real soon after the backup was written. Precisely
because I've seen the same sort of thing happen on other systems. So all
that file-restoring didn't do a lot of damage. Probably helped my
fragmentation somewhat (aha, an online defragger?) It did confuse one
hapless user, who lost an email message he _knew_ he hadn't deleted.
Apparently the system restored the file as of just before that critical
message came in.
The correct entry should read:
> The command:
>
> pax -v -f filename
>
> gives the verbose table of contents for an archive stored in filename.
