Comment (by mfeiri@…):

 *bump*

 I'm happily using the second iteration of this patch for quite a while
 now. Hard links work fine and I guess adding one additional pass of i/o is
 as good as it gets (requiring cpio instead of tar or forking libarchive
 don't sound very attractive). I know some users are eager to see this
 patch in a released version of macports to save precious space on their
 SSD equipped MacBooks. I'll commit to trunk again during the weekend.
