I think I have found a bug in this program.  If I have a directory full
of files, one of which is an archive named bar.arc, and I issue the
command "pkarc a foo *.*" I should end up with an archive called
foo.arc, which contains bar.arc and all the other files that are in
the directory.

Now try to extract bar.arc from foo.arc.  It won't work, giving a
phantom error which combines 'bar.arc' and the name of the first file in
the archive. 

So, be careful about not archiving archives.
