+       Fix Debian bug 230872, originally reported by Jeff King in
+       <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=230872>.
+
+       * doc/tar.texi (posix compliance): Remove.  The whole section
+       was a misunderstanding of what POSIXLY_CORRECT is supposed to
+       mean.  The GNU Coding Standards says that POSIXLY_CORRECT
+       is for disabling extensions that are incompatible with POSIX:
+       it is not for disabling compatible extensions.  All references
+       to this section removed.
+       (posix): This format is created only if the posix format is
+       specified; it is no longer created if gnu format is specified
+       and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
+       * src/tar.c (decode_options): Ignore POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+       POSIX does not specify the behavior of tar, so we should
+       not worry about POSIXLY_CORRECT here.
