Thanks! It builds - if I specify EXTRACT_USING_PAX=yes to make! If not,
tar complains that it cannot open '-X' and that it cannot open the exclude
file either. Is this a bug? I could'nt spot it however (how do you force
make to print the commands it is executing? -dA does not).

I'm running 1.4.1 with pkgsrc from the distribution.
