Interesting, but the error message is not in tar (and, grepping through the tar git repo, has never been in Gnu tar). So you are using some other tar in the sage shell?
sage -sh -c "tar --version" If that doesn't bring anything up, run the doctest under strace -ff and see which processes are being run.
