thanx for the fast response!

you're right it does do it when i go back to straight tar-1.15.2-20060210
also, not sure how i missed that (it actually was a bit perplexing when
i thought that it didn't do it)

bottom line, the behavior is not right correct?

here is the test case in easier to read format:

mkdir a
touch a/x a/y
gtar -c -v -f foo.tar -g incrlis ./
/bin/rm a/x
gtar -c -v -f foo.tar -g incrlis ./
