 Replying to [comment:3 ryandesign]:
 > I'm presuming that if one has the gnutar port installed, then that gets
 used and works, but I haven't tested that.

 Unfortunately the project makefile is hard-coded to use `tar`. But it's
 easy enough to patch, to utilize `gnutar` instead. (Combined with the
 addition of a build dependency on `gnutar`.) That's what I just did to fix
 the build locally.
