I believe this is an error in Cygwin tar. I don't get any errors with
these archives on my Linux box. I can reproduce them on two Cygwin
installations, though.

Could it be that setup cannot handle the version string "p4-1"? This
should be legal as far as I understand the Cygwin package
documentation, but then I might have misunderstood something. Should I
change the version string or should the setup maintainers look at
their parser again?

Markus
