Re: CVS commit: basesrc/bin/pax



This change is wrong.  Specifically, the way you made the chown()
"non-fatal" defeats this bit of code:

        /*
         * IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTE:
         * if not preserving mode or we cannot set uid/gid, then PROHIBIT
         * set uid/gid bits
         */

You must fix it so this works properly again.
