src/bin/pax: file_subs.c pax.h
Log Message:
When restoring files from an archive, initially restore to a temp-file and
once it has been instantiated correctly, rename it to desired name. This
prevents the problem of partially created files being accessed before they
are complete. If said file is a shared library, that can cause ramdon core
dumps.
