Wanted: tape archive with long names

[Andy Glew]

Let me phrase this request in two different manners, appropriate to
the groups I've posted to:

comp.unix.questions:
    I have a directory tree that contains very long pathnames, > 128 characters.
    How do I archive this?
    Tar and gnutar only give me 100 characters, while cpio gives me 128.
    
    I know about the -C option.  Not acceptable.

    I do not want to have to change the names.

*.sources.wanted:
    Does anyone know of a PD tape archiver that has no arbitrary name length limit?
    (or, at least, so large that I am never likely to encounter it. Say 1024 characters)
