The options are implemented on 8- and 9-stable and current. I'm not
sure how exactly this happened - it looks like libarchive and bsdtar
were moved to contrib/ right after 9 was released, and some upstream
updates were merged in the process. I guess it was an oversight, but
there's nothing to do since the options are there now.
