[Bug-tar] tar-1.23 bogus error

[Bruce Dubbs]

I downloaded tar-1.23 and built with:

$tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.22
tar -xf tar-1.23.tar.bz2
cd tar-1.23
./configure
make
cd src

$ ./tar -tf ../../tar-1.23.tar.bz2 | head -n1
tar-1.23/
./tar: write error

The same command using the installed tar-1.22 does not give the error 
message.
