I wonder what that "bug" is.
I (VERY) vaguely remember something about tar or gzip having a maximum file size, don't know if this is even true but if so then perhaps that is related to the "bug".
But with that method the tar archive is not created, it is a pipe, so there is no problem with a size limit of the archive. There could be with the individual files, but that limit would apply with any other method. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
