Version 2.10.90 (Git)
* Fix mt build.
+* In copy-in mode, if directory attributes do not permit writing to it,
+setting them is delayed until the end of run. This allows to correctly
+extract files in such directories.
+* In copy-in mode, permissions of a directory are restored if it
+appears in the file list after files in it (find . -depth). This fixes
+debian bug #458079.
Version 2.10 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2009-06-20
