Joerg Wunsch ed228eb646 Another fixit improvement: add a lame script that pretends to be
tar(1), but actually uses cpio(1).  Many people are getting confused
about the lack of a tar on the fixit floppy, and simply don't know
that cpio can basically handle tar format fine (or they simply don't
know how to invoke cpio).
