It is good to know that this works.  However it doesn't seem much
faster.  Also, I noticed that it fails the first time it hits a
non-existent archive, so restarting after a failure requires a binary
search or just reverting to doing them one at a time.

tarsnap: Archive does not exist: archivename-2014010103
tarsnap: Error deleting archive
