Dear Colin,
I was able to only have two archives because the last directory has 0
byte files.

This is the way I did those archives (for reference) :-

$ cd /usr/share/binfmts/

/usr/share/binfmts$ sudo tar -cvf usr-share-binfmts.tar *
[sudo] password for shirish:
jar
python2.7
python3.3
/usr/share/binfmts$

Similarly the next one :-

$ cd /var/lib/binfmts/

/var/lib/binfmts$ sudo tar -cvf var-lib-binfmts.tar *
jar
jarwrapper
python2.7
python3.3

/var/lib/binfmts$

the last one shows 0 byte files and hence I wasn't able to create a
tar archive :-


/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc$ ll -h
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan  6  2014 jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan  6  2014 jarwrapper
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan  6 02:19 python2.7
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan  6  2014 python3.3
--w------- 1 root root 0 Jan  6 02:19 register
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan  6 02:19 status

/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc$ sudo tar -cvf binfmt_misc *
tar: binfmt_misc: Cannot open: Permission denied
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Please lemme know if any more info. is needed.
