#68658: libarchive: bsdtar crashes with dyld missing symbol

Comment (by jmroot):
The code that uses bsdtar checks whether it works (specifically if `bsdtar
-x --hfsCompression < /dev/null >& /dev/null` succeeds) before using it.
So it's entirely possible that a crash log will be generated by this check
when one of libarchive's dependencies is being upgraded, but the upgrade
will still succeed (just without HFS compression being applied to the
files).
