Hi Thomas,

Unlike previous releases, this tar-gzipped file contains a 52 byte file
called 'pax_global_header'.  The contents of the file contain a single
line of text:

52 comment=50eaac9f3337667259de725451f201e784599687

my extracted tarball does not contain this file. This seems to be a bug of the 
tar command which was fixed in 1.14.

HTH,

Okay. Certain versions of 7-Zip seem to be affected. Just a FYI in case anyone else brings it up on the list.

It's minor and didn't affect the extraction in any way other than being an extra file.
