Has anyone else gotten "tar: impossible file type" messages when trying to
read the table of contents of prep:/pub/gnu/gcc-solaris-2.3.3.tar.z? 
I see them under SunOS 5.1 but not under SunOS 4.1.2 and only when trying
to read the table of contents; extracting the files from the archive
yields no errors.

Can I safely ignore these messages?
