yes. using tar from the live-system would be unfortunate, as it highers
the requirements on the live-system (yes, I'm aware that tar is of
priority required). currently, live-installer just 'dumps' any
live-system to target, which makes it universally usable, not just for
pure debian.
OTOH having additional C code isn't much of a problem, since the udeb is
already arch dependent anyway.
