> When using the GNU longfile mode the tar classes create special archive 
> entries containing the file name if the original name was longer than 100 
> characters.
> Each tar entry header holds a "magic" value indicating the format.
> For the special entries containing the file name the magic value should be 
> "ustar  " indicating the "oldgnu" format.
> See also https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47653 and
