Hi,

I wonder if http://austingroupbugs.net/main_page.php would be a better
place to discuss this because it could involve more people that have
worked on POSIX's wording that just Jörg, and thus may either have a
different opinion, or be able to phrase it in a more persuasive manner.
It doesn't seem tar specific?  Get the semantics hammered out, any
clarifications to the `spec' agreed, and then GNU tar can either follow,
or wilfully deviate, and document that.
