It appears that symlink extraction is broken in recent CVS versions of tar.
Here's a directory tree, with two symlinks:
# ls -lR /tmp/test
/tmp/test:
total 4
-rw--- 1 root root0 May 31 13:03 a
-rw--- 1 root root0 May 31 13:03 b
drwx-- 2 root root 4096 May 31 13:23 somedir/
/t

And yet, each tar file shown below only contains a label, and there
certainly were no files archived on the 19th or 20th:
-rw-rw 1 mrc root 346 Jun 20 02:01 00_snapshot.snar
-rw-rw 1 mrc root 147 Jun 2 02:01 02_incr.1.tar
-rw-rw 1 mrc root 148 Jun 3 02:01 03_in
