[Bug-tar] patches for acl, xattrs, and selinux support

[Bdale Garbee]

These look like generally useful stuff.  However, I've been trying hard
to keep Debian's tar package as close to upstream bits as I can.  Are
these patches things you'd be interested in merging into a new upstream
release?

Hi

I've created two patches, one for tar and one for tar-doc. Those
patches, based on RedHat's patches, add support for acl, selinux and
xattrs. It would be great if Debian would include those, by default.

Please let me know what you think about this idea.

Thanks,

Take care
