Jens Krause <[email protected]> has reported some problems with GNU-tar 1.12 on SCO Release 5. Although the `sparse' files patch was applied, GNU-tar would consistently crash. GNUtar had to be built linked with malloc-libraries, and the `--sparse' switches had to be removed from client-src/sendbackup-gnutar.c and client-src/sendsize.c.
