[issue14810] Bug in tarfile

[Hans Werner May]

Hans Werner May <nc-mayha2 at netcologne.de> added the comment:

"Out of curiosity: where did you get a file that was last modified in 1956?"

No idea, this was a jpeg file, probably downloaded from internet. Btw, on Linux you can manipulate the creation date with the touch command, so it is possible to create a tarball with a member which has creation date 1956, but it is not possible to extract it with the extractall method.
