[cs631apue] Archive state?

[Tejas Nadkarni]

It's weird in the even on the manpage for strmode it doesn't reference A or
a being returned for filetype.

Also I don't appear to have the bsd/string.h on my system so will need to
fix that. That's why since I already have a function written to parse
st_mode I was hoping there was a value I could check for A or a.
