Nothing but wait. The reason that tar doesn't print the characters while find does is probably related to find callng setlocale and tar doesn't. I hope to get this fixed in the next couple of days. We're discussing the entire locale stuff on the cygwin-developers list right now, see the threads starting at http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-09/msg00009.html and http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-09/msg00017.html My current locally patched DLL doesn't have that problem anymore, so we're hopefully on the right way.
