Paul, I miss that ^^ sorry - I'm afraid that building a meaningful
changelog for xattr patch is impossible even for me now.  I tried to
comment important parts of patch in the code.  If there is something you
don't understand, please hit me.

Note that there is still the problem noted by Tim here:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2012-10/msg00017.html

.. we are not able to store/restore extended attributes containing '='
character in the keyword properly - same situation in star as our patch
uses the same approach.
