> The test archive linked to in COMPRESS-336 shows our tar code isn't completely on par with the python lib that uses it for its tests:
> * -we don't seem to identify all kinds of links (./ustar/linktest2/symtype -> ../linktest1/regtype is identified as two entries, as is ./ustar/linktest2/lnktype link to ./ustar/linktest1/regtype)-
> * we only seem to parse gnu/sparse-0.0 properly, not 0.1 or 1.0
> * {{Lister}} shows parts of the Pax-Headers as extra entries for the pax/ headers (further investigation shows, these are global PAX headers)
> * -I'm not sure about the non-ASCII characters in a bunch of file names-
> It is probably best to pick the issues independently as subtasks of this.
