Fix SF bug # 1330039, patch # 1331635 from Lars Gustaebel (tarfile maintainer)
Problem: if two files are assigned the same inode number by the filesystem, the second one will be added as a hardlink to the first, which means that the content will be lost. The patched code checks if the file's st_nlink is greater 1. So only for files that actually have several links pointing to them hardlinks will be created, which is what GNU tar does. Will backport.
