I am compiling PAX on a Unix-PC with gcc-1.32.  I DO have pax, cpio
and tar modes request a new floppy, but they don't  relinquish
(unmount) the drive.  When I take the disk out and put a
new one in, the PC complains, and then when I type in go, cpio/tar
immediatly comes back with "Ready for Disk 3" or something to that
effect i.e. it seems that it dosen't know that a new disk has been put
in.  This occurs on both reads and writes for multivolume sets.

I haven't tried the last set of patches yet (I am compiling them now)
but I didn't see this bug being addressed.

Anybody have a clue as to what is going on?
