O.K. just checked a fix into CVS. I added a utility function to util.py
called split_path() that splits a path depending on whether a head or
tail of the path is passed to it. extract now uses that function to
split the path returned by get_extract_src_path() into the storage
directory (head) and the path requested for extracting (tail), these are
then passed to copy_tree(). Also get_extract_src_path() now returns just
a path instead of a tuple.

Testing has been limited, but it seems to work.
