pkgsrc:
Fix a bug in the linkresolver for tar format. When linkresolver is done,
the entry belongs to the caller, so don't keep a reference to it and use
the local copy for inode comparision.

from archivers/pax and net/tnftp, respectively. In the past, the
pkgtools version of these packages installed into ${PKG_TOOLS_BIN},
but this was changed in:
pkgtools/pax/Makefile:1.15
pkgtools/tnftp/Makefile:1.3
+ Get rid of archivers/pax/Makefile.common and net/tnftp/Makefile.common
by merging them into their respective Makefiles. The Makefile.common
files existed solely for inclusion by the pkgtools versions of these
packages, but with the removal of those packages, these files are
now unnecessary.
+ Add full DESTDIR support to archivers/pax and net/tnftp.
+ Modify the bootstrap to build archivers/pax and net/tnftp instead of
the pkgtools versions of these packages.
Teach set_ftime about symbolic links, because it has to know: on some
Linux systems, when we build as a tool we think we have lutimes but it
doesn't work on some filesystems at runtime. A bit ugly but effective
and without use of AC_TRY_RUN in the tool build. Tidier (than mine)
set_ftime reorganization from christos.
Bump version to 20080110.
