+2015-12-11 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@gnu.org>
+
+ Minor fix
+
+ Fix handling of filename-selection options.
+ Filename-selection options are --wildcards, --recursive, etc. (see
+ names.c for a complete list). These options are
+ position-sensitive,
+ i.e. each such option affects all filenames and filename-selection
+ options that appear after it until eventually cancelled by a
+ corresponding counterpart option.
+ These options can appear in "file-from" file lists, which
+ means that
+ they cannot be handled right away, but instead should be put on
+ the "name_elt" list and processed sequentionally, as file name
+ arguments
+ are.
+ * src/common.h (warn_regex_usage): Remove.
+ (name_add_name): Change signature.
+ (name_add_dir, name_add_file): Remove prototypes.
+ * src/names.c (name_add_option, name_add_dir)

+ tar: fix symlink race and symlink transform bug
+ Problem reported by Tobias Stoeckmann in:

+ * gnulib.modules: Add areadlinkat-with-size.
+ * src/create.c: Include areadlink.h.
+ (dump_file0): Use areadlinkat_with_size, rather than trying to do
+ it by hand, incorrectly. This also avoids assumption that

+ name is long enough to require writing a long link.
+
+ tar: port -d to longer symlinks
+ * src/compare.c (diff_symlink):
+ Don't use alloca on symlink length; it might be too big for
