This is what finally worked -
 I made a new directory on the deployment box called capistrano-
links,
 made a softlink called tar to the gtar binary in it,
 and added it to the path as above.

Thanks Jamis .. on to  the next problem :)

For the record I couldn't get Rafael's approach to work:
  redefining the decompress method in the Copy class caused capistrano
to complain that the new method was missing from the Strategy module??
 However, this is probably due to my lack of Ruby-fu more than
anything else.
