> The currently used TarIn/Out-Stream implementations in trunk are very old. The newer implementation from the ant project fix many bugs.
> For example the getNextEntry() method doesn't skip over datafields correctly. Size isn't set correctly etc.
> The old compress tar-code should be updated with newer ant-code. This also blocks features like the proposed ChangeSet.
