[Bug-cpio] File foo grew, 0 new bytes not copied

[Peter Vrabec]

Hi,

$ ll /tmp/velky
-rw-rw-r--  1 peter peter 4300000000 Mar  1 13:01 /tmp/velky
$find /tmp/velky | ./cpio --format=crc -o > archiv.cpio
./cpio: File /tmp/velky grew, 0 new bytes not copied
9830 blocks
$ ll /tmp/velky
-rw-rw-r--  1 peter peter 4300000000 Mar  1 13:01 /tmp/velky
what do u think about attached patch, which fix this problem?

$ find /tmp/velky | ./cpio --format=crc -o > archiv.cpio
./cpio: /tmp/velky: field width not sufficient for storing file size
1 block
$ echo $?
0
Why not 1 like a error?

I have used cpio-2.6-11 from fedora devel repos., because i'm not able
to bootstrap CVS version.
$ ./bootstrap
./bootstrap: Bootstrapping CVS cpio...
./bootstrap: getting paxutils files...
CVS moved to cvs.savannah.[non]gnu.org
Check http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=4168 for details.
Anonymous access over SSH is replaced by the (more efficient) pserver.
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages
if any)
