Oh, good call.  Yes, gzdopen is what doesn't work.  You cannot do two
things with Compress::Zlib under MacPerl (until someone greater than I
fixes it): pass a filehandle to gzopen(), or call gzdopen() directly.

Anyway, unless you know of significant problems with Archive::Tar 0.21, I
will revert to it for cpan-mac 0.50, and release with the updated versions
of all other pure Perl modules, and the same older versions of the compiled
modules (since no one noted that any new versions are needed).

Thanks,
