W I run `tar cvvf foo.tar /', the output begins this way:
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2002-02-11 12:20:31
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2001-05-09 04:19:27 lost+found/
...
Notice the first file entry, it has an empty name!
And then `tar xvvf foo.tar':
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2002-02-11 12:20:31
tar: : Cannot mkdir: No such file or directory
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2001-05-09 04:19:27 lost+found/
...
Shouldn't tar omit the `/' file?
Version: tar (GNU tar) 1.13.19
