(including pathname, gname, uname) be stored in UTF-8. This usually doesn't cause problems on FreeBSD because the "C" locale on FreeBSD can convert any byte to Unicode/wchar_t and from there to UTF-8. In other locales (including the "C" locale on Linux which is really ASCII), you can get into trouble with pathnames that cannot be converted to UTF-8. Libarchive's pax writer truncated pathnames and other strings at the first nonconvertible character. (ouch!) Other archivers have worked around this by storing unconvertible pathnames as raw binary, a practice which has been sanctioned by the Austin group. However, libarchive's pax reader would segfault reading headers that weren't proper UTF-8. (ouch!) Since bsdtar defaults to pax format, this affects bsdtar rather heavily. To correctly support the new "hdrcharset" header that is going into SUS and to handle conversion failures in general, libarchive's pax reader and writer have been overhauled fairly extensively. They used to do most of the pax header processing using wchar_t (Unicode); they now do most of it using char so that common logic applies to either UTF-8 or "binary" strings. As a bonus, a number of extraneous conversions to/from wchar_t have been eliminated, which should speed things up just a tad. Thanks to: Bjoern Jacke for originally reporting this to me Thanks to: Joerg Sonnenberger for noting a bad typo in my first draft of this Thanks to: Gunnar Ritter for getting the standard fixed MFC after: 5 days
