No.  Instead of tarring your nnml files together, make them into a
digest.  I think there is a script at http://www.fuentez.com/ding to
do that.  Poof.  Best of all possible worlds.  Less inodes, compressed
file (at least in 0.27...), no new code for Lars, convenient interface
(once digests start working again).
