>Description:
Using build.sh to build the system, or even just simply invoking nbpax
directly causes the program to core. The same issue happened with nbmtree,
and was recently fixed. I suspect nbpax has the same problem, but have
not investigated.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build nbpax (ideally via build.sh), use it to create an archive, and enjoy.
>Fix:
Not known, but likely similar to the recent nbmtree fix.
>Unformatted:
it attempts file i/o on the target file
