OS X does include cpio but I have been unsuccessful in getting it to do 
anything with a .dmg.  cpio -h tells me it’s "bsdcpio 2.8.3 -- lib archive 
2.8.3”, but I also see evidence that it’s already included from clamav-0.98.6 
source’s libclamav directory.  I suspect that means it’s what is used to 
extract "tar, pax, cpio , zip, jar, ar, and ISO 9660 cdrom images" (from the 
man).

I think we’re going to have to wait for somebody to tell us exactly how “Dmg 
scanning was added."
