XATTR option does NOT work for chattr attributes

Hi,

Like many others, I started using star because of it's XATTR support.
In fact, I often use it in -copy mode as a replacement for "cp -p".

However I just noticed that the immutable flag (as used by the chattr
command)
is not preserved by star when using the XATTR option (although user
attributes seem
to work fine).

Am I doing something wrong or is this feature not yet supported?

If the latter is the case, does anyone know of any copy/archive utility that
preserves chattr EAs.

I am using Star Version 1.5a75 on RedHat/Centos 5.0 but have also noticed
the problem on
many other distros.

Regards,
