	$main::cpio_blk_flag = "--block-size=$main::cpio_blk_flag";

(you can either add that line into the code after the line that says
$main::cpio_blk_flag = "-C $main::cpio_blk_flag"; and the cpio_blk_flag
variable will just get overriden, or you can comment out the "-C" line with
a '#' and then add the --block-size line).

Hope this helps. If it does, maybe there's some things that Edwin and I can do
to "steer" flexbackup to do the right thing given a config knob or something.
