Does anyone have a working example of using amgtar to backup ACLs and/or 
selinux attributes?

It seems that any of the --acls, --selinux or --xattrs flags are actually 
incompatible with the --listed-incremental flag to GNU tar? I hacked 
the --xattrs option into amgtar but I can't seem to get it to work 
with --listed-incremental, which it seems is necessary for incremental 
backups.

I can get star to work, but restores seem much less reliable than gtar, and 
that makes me really nervous.

Thanks for any assistance.
