This is not a bug though. Every time this happens it's on Solaris, and because someone didn't use GNU tar or used an ancient version of GNU tar: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2012-06/msg00291.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2008-04/msg01469.html http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33511#c13 http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html says GNU tar 1.14 or later is needed
