GNU tar changed -l to match SUSv2 a couple of years ago,
so bsdtar no longer needs to pander to this particular GNUism.

* prototypes for optarg/optind on platforms that don't already have them
* Disambiguate version number macros
* Remove unnecessary PACKAGE_NAME macro
* Hook for forthcoming bsdtar test suite
* Sync version number up with the portable distribution
(This does a couple of things that the standard library's strmode()
doesn't; it proved useful in bsdcpio as well, so I pushed it down
into libarchive.)
* Implement --use-compress-program using new libarchive feature.
* Minor portability improvement by adjusting casts used to
print out uids, gids, and device numbers.
Thanks to: Joerg Sonnenberger for the --use-compress-program implementation.

failed path is one which was specified on the command line.
This is a compromise between the situation prior to revision 1.57
(where a race between tar(1) and rm(1) could cause tar(1) to
spuriously report an error) and the situation after revision 1.57
(where "tar -c /no/such/path" prints a warning but returns with
an exit code of zero).

occur on the write side of extracting a file to ARCHIVE_WARN errors
when returning them from archive_read_extract.
In bsdtar: Use the return code from archive_read_data_into_fd and
archive_read_extract to determine whether we should continue trying to
extract an archive after one of the entries fails.
This commit makes extracting a truncated tarball complain once about
the archive being truncated, instead of complaining twice (once when
trying to extract an entry, and once when trying to seek to the next
entry).

into separate append_archive and append_archive_filename functions; the first
takes a "struct archive *" as input, while the second takes a filename, opens
the archive, and calls the first.
There should be no changes in behaviour as a result of this commit; it simply
reorganizes code to make more sense. At some point in the future it may be
possible to share code between append_archive and read_archive, but not yet.
Discussed with: kientzle
affecting the return value from bsdtar), since (a) it usually occurs
due to a perfectly innocent (and unavoidable) race condition where a
user deletes a file in the window between bsdtar reading a directory
and attempting to read the file; and (b) aside from printing a warning
message, bsdtar behaves exactly as if the file had been deleted prior
to bsdtar reading its parent directory.

better job searching for the bsdtar binary to test and the gtar binary
to use for inter-operability testing. It should now find the built
(but not installed) binary if there is one, then search for an
installed binary in a number of standard locations.
* New test scripts exercise some basic functionality
* Most header inclusions are now protected (portability)
* read.c now relies on security checks in libarchive instead
of trying to do its own (optimization)
* -p now enabled by default for root, add --no-same-permissions
to disable it
* Comments, minor style fixes.

ACL restore has been working, ACLs haven't been written into archives
for some time. <sigh>

the _is_dir() and _is_physical_dir() tests.

Libarchive recently changed to correctly return the amount
of data actually consumed in this case, which revealed this
bug in bsdtar.
* Create file if it doesn't exist.
* If archive is "empty", then append to it with pax restricted
* If user specified a format, use that if it's compatible with
the existing format.
