Trying to untar an Emacs pretest tar ball (22.0.94) with
`tar-untar-buffer' results in the following backtrace:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid search bound (wrong side of
point)")
re-search-forward("[

\n]*\\)[ ]*Local Variables:[ ]*\\([^
\n]*\\)[

When looking at the tar buffer after the error happened point is
located at a new page character (^L).
The bug makes it impossible to install a package containing such
characters in certain files with install.el which uses
`tar-untar-buffer' for the extraction of files from a package.
