Changes in version 0.8:
The new option '--anonymous', equivalent to '--owner=root --group=root', has
been added.
On extraction and listing, tarlz now removes leading './' strings also from
member names given in the command line. 'tarlz -xf foo ./bar' now extracts
member 'bar' from archive 'foo'. (Reported by Viktor Sergiienko in the
bug-tar mailing list).
Tarlz now writes extended headers with all fields zeroed except size,
chksum, typeflag, magic and version. This prevents old tar programs from
extracting the extended records as a file in the wrong place (with a
truncated filename). Tarlz now also sets to zero those fields of the ustar
header overridden by extended records.
The chapter 'Amendments to pax format', explaining the reasons for the
differences with the pax format, has been added.
