Fixed bugs, incorporated Bombich Software changes #7

Hi..

I enjoy using Backup Bouncer, but I wanted to try out the changes from Bombich Software. Doing so caused BB to run out of space on the disk images, so I dived in to fix that. On the way, I found some bugs, which I have hopefully fixed correctly. For instance, the mktemp program was being called with a bad template, causing pax to fail before it even started. I also got rid of 'set -e' everywhere, since it was creating havok when testing and when viewing results. The hfs-compression.test had problems parsing the output of xattr-util l, until the quotes were removed. Don't know quite how to handle metadata with a space in the key now, though.

Hope this is helpful!
