Those warnings are caused by Apple's tar(1) putting some extended
attributes in. GNU tar does not recognise them and outputs warnings.
FreeBSD tar seems to either recognise or ignore them and extracts the
tarball just fine.
NetBSD tar, on the other hand, does not exactly choke on them but
creates extra files under a 'PaxHeader' directory:
% cat t/lib/Mason/PaxHeader/ApacheTest.pm
18 gid=1896053708
17 uid=512269995
20 ctime=1390080924
20 atime=1390080924
23 SCHILY.dev=16777220
22 SCHILY.ino=9368981
18 SCHILY.nlink=1
ExtUtils::MakeMaker chokes on these files, thinking that they are Perl
code part of the distribution.
Erasing the extra directories with
% find HTML-Mason-1.53 -name PaxHeader -type d -exec rm -rf {} +
fixes the situation.
I guess creating the tarball with a non-Apple tar would be a solution?
