Path line limit?

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but when taring a file deep in a
directory tree, it appears to trucate the path after 100 characters.
So, for instance, the file:


ilmdb/WEB-INF/classes/ilm/ilmdb/dbobjects/persistent/lookup/MediaFormatLU$MediaFormatDisplayValues.class

get's tarred as:

ilmdb/WEB-INF/classes/ilm/ilmdb/dbobjects/persistent/lookup/MediaFormatLU$MediaFormatDisplayValues.c

Is this a bug, or is there an option to work around this?

Thanks,

Bryan

PS, the version is 1.13, running on SunOS 5.7 (Solaris 2.7).

tar (GNU tar) 1.13
