+version 1.12.64011 - Paul Eggert, 1999-04-09.
+
+This is an unofficial port of GNU `tar' 1.12 to large file
+environments like AIX 4.2, HP-UX 10.20, IRIX 6.2, and Solaris 2.6 that
+(among other things) rely on integer system types longer than `long'.
+Please send bug reports specific to this unofficial version of GNU `tar'
+to <eggert@twinsun.com>.
+
+This is not intended to be a forked release for GNU tar; it's
+just an interim experimental release, mostly intended for
+large file hosts.  The patches of this
+release have all been (or will be) submitted via the usual channels and
+they should no longer be needed once the next official release
+of GNU tar is out.
