Thanks for spotting!
 
I've just downloaded your patch from
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=29;filename=39_fix_archive_tar_symlink_unpack;att=1;bug=509802
and it applies cleanly to 1.38-2 from our svn repo, so if the release
team wishes it would be easy to upload the "old" 1.38-2 plus this
patch (with whatever version number would be appropriate for such a
mixture :).

Cheers,
gregor
