The output of 'tar tv' varies from system to system. In particular, the t5000 was expecting to parse the date from something like: -rw-rw-r-- root/root 0 2008-05-13 04:27 file but FreeBSD's tar produces this: -rw-rw-r-- 0 root root 0 May 13 04:27 file Instead of relying on tar's output, let's just extract the file using tar and stat the result using perl.
