Listed-incremental backups are working again with the new binary.
Although, upgrading from tar-1.13.25-1 (the last version where
listed-incremental backups functioned correctly) to tar-1.13.25-5 will
cause all files (except those in the top-level directory) to be archived,
even if they haven't been changed. This is because the inode and device
numbers stored by tar in the directory file have changed.
