I discovered a bug in Tar 1.12a: numerical backups didn't work on non-LFN 
filesystems.  A corrected distribution was uploaded to SimTel.NET; if you 
work on plain DOS, it is recommended to install the new binaries.

LFN operation did not suffer from this bug, and is unaffected by the 
change.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
