Got a weird tar which confuses toybox. Comparing to the one toybox makes from same files, notice the missing slash in directory, spaces in size where nulls usually are, and lettered username beside uid. Has this any relation to the matter of policy thing mentioned in tar.c? BLFS of last year says the archive is "known to build and work properly using an LFS-8.3 platform." http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/8.3/general/perl-modules.html#perl-module-build https://www.cpan.org/authors/id/L/LE/LEONT/Module-Build-0.4224.tar.gz
