Cannot mkdir: Is a directory

[John David Anglin]

An error occurs with tar-1.13.18 under vax ultrix 4.3 when extracting an
archive when it does a mkdir..  For example,

# gzcat Z/textutils-2.0.9.tar.gz|tar xf -
/usr/local/bin/gtar: textutils-2.0.9/: Cannot mkdir: Is a directory

I think the trailing '/' needs to be stripped.
