Dear Sir,
Thank you for investigating the TAR program.
I found a potentially incorrect nesting in rmt/rmt.c, in tar-1.16.
It is not fixed even in tar-1.16.1.
If the macro MTIOCGET is not defined, the nesting relationship
of brackets ( { and } ) would be broken.
The following is the suggestible patch:
diff -ur tar-1.16.1.orig/rmt/rmt.c tar-1.16.1/rmt/rmt.c
--- tar-1.16.1.orig/rmt/rmt.c 2006-12-12 07:51:50.000000000 +0900

Thank you for your consideration.
Best wishes,
