"-O Force the archive to be one volume.  If a volume ends prematurely, pax will not prompt for a new volume."

Taken from NetBSD with hints from OpenBSD.

The whitespace change for the declaration of zpid need not, strictly speaking, be a part of this change.

Man page style dictates that each sentence should start on a new line.

Comment 6 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-04-17 18:43:46 UTC 
committed and MFCed to 10.  This means it will appear in the next 10.x release but not in 8.x or 9.x
