As a matter of fact, file "./IcebergAlpha/Library/Application

Importer/._template.packproj" really does _NOT_ exist so there does
not seem to be any valuable reason why pax would need to read it.
Three _is_ a reason for ._template.packproj: it's the Finder Info and
resource fork stuff. Every file on a HFSx partition gets split on the
fly when copied to a non-resource fork aware file system or archive.
Same for cp, tar, rsync, ...
Obviously, the implementation of this on-the-fly split isn't savy
against the assumptions made when pax was coded.
