-current tar(1) breakage

[Hauke Fath <hauke%Espresso.Rhein-Neckar.DE@localhost>]

Hi,

building editors/xemacs-nox11 on a -current machine (net-booted, if it 
matters) fails with

[...]
Copying /var/obj/pkgsrc/editors/xemacs-nox11/work/xemacs-21.4.24/etc...
./TUTORIAL.ko: Truncated tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) (cd ${dir} && tar -cf - .) |
      Done(1)                 (cd ${dest} && umask 022 && tar -xf -)
Copying /var/obj/pkgsrc/editors/xemacs-nox11/work/xemacs-21.4.24/lisp...
./syntax.el: Truncated tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) (cd ${dir} && tar -cf - .) |
      Done(1)                 (cd ${dest} && umask 022 && tar -xf -)

This works on netbsd-9. What has changed in the -current tar?

The workaround was to symlink /usr/pkg/bin/gtar to .tools/bin/tar. Is 
there any pkgsrc magic for making gtar pose as tar(1), or am I on my 
own?

Cheerio,
Hauke
