Hi p5p,

As discussed previously, this is one of the patches to eliminate
reliance on external tools where practical. The attached patch exchanges
the use of a native `tar` executable against the use of Archive::Tar in
Porting/sync-with-cpan .

I'd like to get these changes in as early as possible in the 5.19 cycle,
because the sooner we find out incompatibilities the better.

Hi, Max.

It looks like that patch is swapping out "ptar" and it doesn't apply.

Was your patch against an older version or some intermediate experiment perhaps?
