tar seems to be the problem, not the steamdir:

         Y => remember password

On the other hand:

-bash-2.05b$ ./steam --version

Isn't there a way (hlds_run goes fine) to manually update?

Oh, this was using gtar using a symlink:

-bash-2.05b$ ls -l /emul/linux/bin/tar
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  17 Oct  6 21:14 /emul/linux/bin/tar ->
