[Bug-tar] Build fail on PowerPC 64

[Pavel Raiskup]

Hi, with the default configuration of GNU tar, the build fail on PowerPC 64 bit
machine with:

  make[4]: Entering directory `/home/praiskup/tar/gnu'
    CC       set-mode-acl.o

  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

The full log (make -k) is in attachement.  Probably this kind of warning should
be disabled for GNU tar atm?

There is one problem with the xattrs code (not related to xattrs), fix in
attachement.
