The next release of Archive::Tar (1.08) will fix the bug of adding

Hi Andrew, Thanks for the quick fix; It's good to know that Archive::Tar
is now being actively maintained.
Ken, Since a file stat and test is a relatively expensive operation, and
since the chatter produced is non-fatal, doesn't break anything, and
will go away in future versions of Archive::Tar, I would suggest
reverting this change. If anyone complains about the chatter, we can
suggest that they bump their version of Archive::Tar.
Randy.
