You don't mention which version of GNU tar you're using, or where you
got it from, but the quick answer is that your associate could use GNU
tar. These days it comes with Solaris, under the name
'/usr/sfw/bin/gtar' (Solaris 9 or later). Or he can download GNU tar
from <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/tar/tar-1.15.1.tar.gz> and build and
install it himself with "configure; make install".
