+1.     Changed restore to emit warnings (instead of emitting a fatal
+       error) if a file (or a directory) is unavailable for a 
+       comparision (if the user doesn't have the necessary permissions
+       to access it for example). Thanks to Kenneth Porter
+       <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for the bug report.

+4.     Fix a brown paper bug in restore -C which broke restore and
+       caused modifications on the filesystem being compared
+       (directories containing a file with the same name as the
+       directory get renamed to RSTTMP...). Thanks to Kenneth Porter
+       <shiva@sewingwitch.com> for finding the bug and helping me
+       reproduce it.
+
+5.     Made restore -C force the -N flag (no writing allowed on
+       the disk) in order to prevent more bugs like the above one.
