A simple flag to indicate if this is the first time
through the loop should suffice, I think.

Hmm... I considered this, but I wasn't sure if there were any edge
cases where the first path returned by tree_next might not be the
path passed to tree_open; so I decided to take the route which I
knew would always work.

What if someone gives more than one path to tar?

Bye,
