[Bug-tar] Tests 25 and 65 fail on OSX

[Charles Diza]

Hello,

On MacOSX 10.9.4, tests 25 and 65 fail when checking a build of 1.28.  From memory, this was also the case on 1.27.1, and also with OSX versions 10.5 through 10.8.  I don't remember whether 10.4 had the same issue.

I'm just wondering if this is something to be concerned about:

  GNU tar 1.28 test suite test groups:

    25: iotty.at:26        terminal input

        options iotty

    65: extrac09.at:34     extracting even when . and .. are unreadable

        extract extrac09

I didn't attach "testsuite.log" to this message because it's 2.1MB and I don't know the attachment etiquette followed here.

Please advise.

Charles
