Yup, in so much as I clicked them in Netscape, and I've never had this problem 
before.

Happened from JimPick and about 3 others.  On the other hand, once I used -i, 
the resulting unpack configured and made without error, so maybe it's nothing, 
or a bug in my local tar?

Thanks for checking anyway,
