[Bug-tar] tar 1.23.90 failure on Solaris 10 (32-bit sparc)

[Paul Eggert]

I built tar 1.23.90 on Solaris 10 (32-bit sparc) using the Sun-supplied gcc
and got a failure in the remove-files with compression test as shown in the
attached files.  Apparently SIGPIPE is not being caught by the parent tar,
as it should.  The last bit of truss output looks like this:

write(4, " b\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0".., 10240)   Err#32 EPIPE
    Received signal #13, SIGPIPE [default]

and as far as I can see, sigaction is never invoked except on SIGCLD.
