It would be nice to use fakeroot to create a pax archive where all the
files are owned by root; using ls or most other manipulations on files
owned by myself show them to be pseudo-owned by root, but pax doesn't
see it and writes the archive with my UID in it.

My immediate wild guess is that fakeroot is not handling fstat calls
or somesuch, based on the output of strace (not shown here), but
that's just a wild guess.
