You can find out exactly what the BSD Subsystem installs by opening the package "BSD.pkg" with my app, Pacifist. Shameless plug, I know. :-)

And what is only getting installed with the BSD Subsystem? (Which is optional, but is on by default)

Stupid yes, but IIRC gnutar was only installed with the devtools under Puma?

This is important, because you cannot package stuff for distribution if you cannot know that all people in your target audience got the tools to unpack them.
I would hate to have to put customers in the catch-22 position of first having to find out how to download a decompressor, before being able to download and decompress my product.
The fact (?) that Stuffit might be able to decompress bz2 is not really good enough either - since Stuffit is known to mangle file names out of spite.

It would be interesting to know if Apple now installs basic compression and encoding utilities with the default installation of Jaguar (besides Stuffit Expander and DiscCopy)?
