Libarchive is a programming library that can create and read several
different streaming archive formats, including most popular tar
variants and several cpio formats. It can also write shar archives and
read ISO9660 CDROM images. The bsdtar program is an implementation of
tar(1) that is built on top of libarchive.

Routine update tracking upstream merge of cygwin patches.

[[ compiled using gcc-3.4.4-999 ]]

Barring unforeseen errors, this will be the final libarchive
update for the cygwin-1.5 distribution.  Future development will
continue with libarchive-2.7.1pre-10 for cygwin-1.7.
