Using GNU tar 1.11, compiled with GNU C 1.40 under COFF encapsulation
on a 386/ix 2.0.2 (still waiting for Hurd :-), and with an archive
made through GNU tar 1.10 by:

	tar cvV "GNU grep 1.6" grep.tar.Z

I get:

----->
/usr0/tmp) tar xv
GNU grep 1.6
Reading GNU grep 1.6
grep.tar.Z
tar: couldn't change access and modification times of [lines of garbage]
tar: cannot change mode of file [lines of garbage]
/usr0/tmp) 
-----<

where [lines of garbage] are many lines of random codes ending,
probably by luck, with `...& to 416 : No such file or directory'.
