I understand your point, but the tar issue seems like a cygwin
problem, rather than a general Windows problem. I think I've seen
WinZip extract tar.gz without trouble, for example.
I've never used Cygwin, but I thought someone might have a trick to
passify it, like setting UID to zero (in the archive) or similar.
