PROBLEM:  (76860, 79581) (PATCH ID: OSF505-077)
********


This patch fixes the following pax and vdump problems:
    - The pax/tar command opens and truncates pre-existing
       files while extracting from an archive. This can cause
       problems when performing an update install.

    - The vdump command will backup automount symbolic
       links as files in a directory section. A restore of this link
      would then prevent automount from changing a directory file
      to a symbolic link file.

This patch fixes a problem where the tar -F (Fasttar) option
ignores files named "err" but doesn't ignore files named
"errs" and directories named "SCCS" and "RCS".


PROBLEM: (DM07739) (PATCH ID: OSF505-224)
********
This patch corrects pax/tar/cpio to properly extract explicitly specified files.
When an archive contained a file with extended attributes and a different file
(occurring later in the archive) was specified to be extracted, improper buffer 
pointer management resulted in the following display (example uses tar):
        tar: /dev/nrmt0h : This doesn't look like a tar archive
        tar: /dev/nrmt0h : Skipping to next file...
        tar: Memory allocation failed for extended data while reading :
      Not enough space
The directory option was similarly affected. In this case the information 
for the specified file was not reported.
