This upgrade dont allow tar -f user@host:file syntax to be used.

ie. tar -cvf myhost:/dev/st0 /home

I've some sarge (i386) running here and using the previous binary (1.14-2)
all works.

fw:/home/mathieu# ls -l /bin/tar*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 163852 Feb 24 22:21 /bin/tar       (1.14-2.1)
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 163820 Mar 19 10:51 /bin/tar.ori   (1.14-2)

fw:/home/mathieu# md5sum /bin/tar*
d0ed2a62e6459375513d211a2bc5e9fb  /bin/tar                 
96a1dd64ee6424a6cfa7839015d98d67  /bin/tar.ori


using tar 1.14-2.1

fw:/home/mathieu# tar --rmt-command=/usr/sbin/rmt -cvf
'mathieu@195.5.212.82:/home/mathieu/test.tgz' /etc tar:
mathieu@195.5.212.82\:/home/mathieu/test.tgz: Cannot open: Input/output
error tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now


using old tar 1.14-2 :

fw:/home/mathieu# tar.ori --rmt-command=/usr/sbin/rmt -cvf
'mathieu@195.5.212.82:/home/mathieu/test.tgz' /etc/ssh Password: 
tar.ori: Removing leading `/' from member names
/etc/ssh/
/etc/ssh/moduli
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.dpkg-old

Also tested on 3 other sarge hosts, the 1.14-2.1 fail and all works again
if I use the previous 1.14-2 from /var/cache/apt/archives

Regards
