Description:
------------
If you specify by mistake a wrong archive type in the constructor the code doesn't report any problems but the archive created is empty.

PEAR ver 1.3.1

Reproduce code:
---------------
$tar =& new Archive_Tar("file.tar.bz2","bz");
// "bz" is not a valid parameter but no warning is given
$tar->add("zzz.gif");
// an empty file.tar.bz2 is created

Expected result:
----------------
Some warning
