Only use `tar -k` for new releases
In old releases, notably in Debian 6 (Squeeze), multiple packages ship
the same files using diversions (e.g. bash/dash). As debootstrap
naively extracts packages without implementing diversions itself, it
relies on tar replacing the files without an error.
Ideally we could use `tar --keep-directory-symlink`, but this is
likely not portable enough. So continue to use `tar -k`, but only for
future releases. Note that this requires no file conflicts among
packages debootstrap installs (which is a good idea anyway as they
might be extracted in the wrong order).
