What do you have against "cpio"? Admittedly it's harder to use than
"tar"
but I still come across it from time to time; also, "tar" had a bug at one
time whereby it did not handle an empty directory, and I think there was a
problem with devices/sockets as well.
Heck, I still have "cpio -adplumv" burned into my retinas.
