    usr.bin/tar          bsdtar.1 bsdtar.c 
  Log:
  GNU and POSIX disagree about -o and -l.
  
  For -l, upset everyone by breaking it.  Specifically, -l now produces
  a lengthy error message that suggests --check-links (POSIX -l) or
  --one-file-system (GNU -l) instead.  However, if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set,
  use the POSIX interpretation.
  
  For -o, please everyone by making it work both ways:
    * -xo uses POSIX behavior
    * -co uses "almost GNU" behavior (as close as we can get until
      libarchive implements a true V7 tar format)
