[Bug-cpio] About cpio(1) destination directory

   Hi,
 
Is there any way of providing a destination directory to cpio(1)? Following 
command does nothing but exit without any error or warning message, 
irrespective of whether ./bash directory exists or not. 
 
   $ rpm2cpio bash-4.1.7-1.fc13.i686.rpm | cpio -imd --quiet 
--no-absolute-filenames ./bash
  
With the -p switch,
  
   $ rpm2cpio bash-4.1.7-1.fc13.i686.rpm | cpio -imd --quiet 
--no-absolute-filenames  -p ./bash 
cpio: Mode already defined
 
it exits with - cpio: Mode already defined - but does not create any 
files/directories under ./bash.
  
It's quite weird.
 
Thanks.
