libtar fails to cross build from source, because it doesn't pass --host
to configure. Ultimately, dh_strip fails operating on build architecture
ELF objects. In the attached patch, I move libtar to using
dh_auto_configure, which knows the right flags. After that, the build
still fails due to stripping via install -s with the build architecture
strip. Removing the -s flag also means that a -dbgsym package will be
created. Please consider applying the patch as it makes the cross build
succeed.

compilation (Closes: #839883).
