I've just release cpio version 2.5 which fixes
a bug in the GNU code.

The previous release of cpio came as part of the
standard install with SFU/Interix 3.5 and was version 2.4.2.
Version 2.4.2 has the same bug as 2.5.

You can install this by doing:
pkg_add ftp://ftp.interopsystems.com/pkgs/3.5/cpio-current-bin.tgz

I'll correct my statement above.
The fix to cpio is a workaround for a readlink() change in behavior for
3.5 from the previous versions (3.0, 2.2, 2.1, 2.0).

MS will make a fix sometime (since it was through the grapevine from MS
that I heard about this). But I don't know when. This change to cpio
allows people using cpio (rare these days) to have things work right.
