/*
 * Attempt at emulation of Unix tar by calling Plan 9 tar.
 * 
 * The differences from Plan 9 tar are:
 *	In the absence of an "f" flag, the file /dev/tape is used.
 *	An "f" flag with argument "-" causes use of stdin/stdout
 *		by passing no "f" flag (nor argument) to Plan 9 tar.
 *	By default, the "T" flag is passed to Plan 9 tar.
 *		The "m" flag to this tar inhibits this behavior.
