OK, I'll rephrase the question in the positive: Is there any reason *why* GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIR is hardcoded at compile time? :-) (And yes, I agree: consistency would be nice. But we *can* specify where this particular program puts its data. What's worse -- crippling the functionality, or being inconsistent?)
