New submission from Zooko O'Whielacronx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

As reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/pyopenssl/+bug/236190 ,
tarfile.py incurs an "Operation not permitted" exception (on Mac OS
10.4) when it tries to untar the pyOpenSSL-0.6.tar.gz tarball, because
that tarball has directories in it marked as having the "g+s" bit.

(Why this leads to an "Operation not permitted" exception, I don't know.)
