Hi,
I'm building tar-1.31 on a homebrew system that is based on (Beyond)
Linux From Scratch. It is very stable even though
it is frequently ahead of LFS in terms of installed package
versions.
tar is not in BLFS and BLFS is not ahead of LFS. Both are released at
the same time.
I am building with the latest snapshot of gcc-8.
Please let me know if I there is any other information you need or
can help in any other way (e.g. test fixes).

Note that we normally build tar as root.
There were no failures. Some skips are due to missing dependencies, but
that is acceptable.
