Hi, this is a continuation of the thread http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-11/msg00069.html
The error still persists in 1.25 and also the GIT repository from today, so we still run on 1.23 until this issue is fixed. The error occurs only when the compilation is done on Solaris 9 but the resulting executable is then run on Solaris 10. However, it is expected that a binary compiled on Solaris 9 using standard interfaces should run on later versions, so making a special version is in general possible, but not entirely satisfactory. If it helps I can offer an account on the buildfarm to reproduce the problem. Best regards -- Dago
