Recently I encountered a limitation of the unshar (as of 1.4.2). A group of
postings had a file split across two parts so the first one deid '> xxx' and
the second did '>> xxx'. Unshar ignored the append and over-wrote the first
part with the last. I do not yet have 1.5.0 (let alone 1.5.3) installed so I
did not bother fixing it. FYI.
