Please don't do this.  This would make the netbsd output incompatible
with every other tar package utility.  Current, .tar.gz means doing the
blocking after since it follows the 'unix way' of doing things with
filters.  If you want to add a flag to do blocking on a file by file
basis then use a different flag other than -z.
