Probably unlucky.  The maintainers had to go through some hoops to
handle the xz archives, and I wanted to make only small changes to get
the packages to run.

gnutls28 was close to a normal case, but it would have had to have
SourceDirectory regardless of what the archive format was. :-)

I agree.  I've got a change that works, and also ensures that the same
matches are used in both get_build_directory() and phase_unpack().
I'll push it upstream presently.
