[Bug-tar] Weird attitude when update flag is used

Version : 1.19

When you try to update a tar archive which doesn't exist, tar exits with an error :

$ tar -uf foo.tar bar.txt
This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

But the archive foo.tar is created successfully.

With tar 1.18 :
$ tar -uf foo.tar bar.txt
$

The archive is also created successfully.
