Replying to [comment:14 ballapete]:
> `Gnutar` can handle all compressed tape archives without auxiliary tools
and its recent version should become the tool working at least on `Tiger`.
If you mean that we should simply modify MacPorts base so that it uses
/opt/local/bin/gnutar to decompress all tar files, we obviously cannot do
that because then you could never install gnutar or its dependencies in
the first place since they are distributed as (compressed) tar files.
