The command for extracting a tar made with BackupPC_tarPCCopy:

cd newbackupfs/pc
tar -xPv

(the P is important)

Piping the restore through netcat

on source server:

BackupPC_tarPCCopy  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/hostname | nc mystic 9800

where hostname is the backup host. I had to do each one individually, else it would abort after one or two.

on dest server:

cd /var/lib/backuppc/pc
nc -l -p 9800 | tar -xPpvf -
