    Problem Text
    This test may fail on implementations because of ASCII dependencies in
    the pax header.

    tp812() has an ASCII dependency. The test has been changed to
    issue the strings command on a pax archive. The test expects
    to find the following strings in the output of the strings
    command: ustar, tet812.c, and test812_assertion().

    This test will only work on ASCII based systems. On systems other
    than ASCII, the only string that will be found by the grep -e
    command is test812_assertion(). The reason for this is because
    the header of the archive is in ASCII (as defined by POSIX.1), and
    the grep -e will not find "ustar" or "tet812.c" because that info.
    is there in ASCII, but not in the code set that grep understands.
