I've resumed an old discussion about the GNU Tar issue here:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2018-01/msg00002.html

The good news is that Paul Eggert, a GNU Tar maintainer, is open to
letting me fix this bug properly.

I just filed a report with the information I gathered, here:

   https://bugs.gnu.org/30027

I neglected to mention it, but I also saved the failed build directory,
and the complete build log.
