I have also a version of GNU Emacs 21.3.50 (more like 22.x), and
20.7. In elder Emacsen, I think up to and including 20.x, it was
necessary to
(load-library "jka-compr")
Then jka-compr added well-known extensions and also an entry on jka-
compr-mode (or such) to handle particular file types. And maybe
telling it about modern compressors/file name endings like tgz, tbz,
tbz2, tar.bz2 was needed. Tar-mode itself works since at least 18.x.
Therefore my old question what was happening when GNU Emacs was
launched without any customisation ...
