that I've been working on but put off committing until after the
RELENG_7 branch, including:
* New manpages: cpio.5 mtree.5
* New archive_entry_strmode()
* New archive_entry_link_resolver()
* New read support: mtree format
* Internal API change: read format auction only runs once
* Running the auction only once allowed simplifying a lot of bid logic.
* Cpio robustness: search for next header after a sync error
* Support device nodes on ISO9660 images
* Eliminate a lot of unnecessary copies for uncompressed archives
* Corrected handling of new GNU --sparse --posix formats
* Correctly handle a zero-byte write to a compressed archive
* Fixed memory leaks
Many of these improvements were motivated by the upcoming bsdcpio
front-end.
There have also been extensive improvements to the libarchive_test
test harness, which I'll commit separately.

enable it with _read_support_format_all().

a vanilla 2-clause BSD license, but somehow some confusing
extra verbage get copied from somewhere.
Also, update the copyright dates to 2007 for all of the files.
Prompted by: several questions about what those extra words really mean

Only supports "deflate" and "none" compression for now.
Also, add a few clarifications to the archive_read.3 manpage as
requested by William Dean DeVries.

In particular, bsdtar should now recognize ISO9660 images.

there's no need to enable support for it separately
from 'tar.' (The call to enable gnutar support is
now just an alias for the tar support, left in to
avoid API breakage.)

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

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.
