For reference, while browsing the history I found this commit:
commit 3252594427f5285ab4091a6beca2adaa5082a883
Author: Wichert Akkerman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Add support for GNU tar extension for long filenames
So it might have been supported once... that said it hasn't caused troubles in
several releases, so it's not really RC anyway. Downgrading to important so
that it doesn't get in the way of testing migration or anything else.
Would be nice to have it fixed for lenny though.
Cheers,
