[Bug-tar] need to build a Windows tar with no cywin1.dll dependency

[Mike Maki]

I've been looking at how to do this, but haven't found out how to make a 
tar.exe that will run in a dos cmd shell. Do I need to compile on a 
non-cygwin system using non-gnu compiler? The last thing I want to do is 
use MS VCC. I'm required to update to a recent version of tar.exe (we 
ship 1.12 now and would like to ship 1.21 or better). Thanks,

Mike
