All,

The tar version supplied by the project 
(http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gtar.htm) is 1.13, which is 
from 1999.  If you check the Gnu FTP site (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/tar/), 
there have been 13 releases of tar in the 12 years since then.

Why is the project supplying such an old version of tar instead of a 
current one?  There have been many features and bug fixes in those 13 
new releases.
