unblock 526468 by 515731
thanks
When you get an error like "Unknown errror: 4294967207" coming out of
perror, it's a libc or kernel issue (likely a mismatch of some sort).
This has nothing to do with 515731. It seems somewhat unusual to claim
that a bug is blocked by something that was closed 7 months ago in a
package other than the one associated with the error.
515731 was for coreutils, and had to do with *older* (not newer) kernels
which didn't support the newer utimensat function and was fixed by
falling back to the older futimens function if utimensat returned
ENOSYS. (Which would do nothing if 4294967207 doesn't equal ENOSYS.) tar
may well have the same kind of issue, don't know. In this case I doubt
it's tar's problem.
