[Bug-tar] [GNU tar 1.26] testsuite: 96 failed

[Bruno Haible]

Hi,

After I built GNU tar 1.26 with the TAPE environment variable set, "make check"
fails:

 96: storing long sparse file names                  FAILED (sparse04.at:35)

Details:

$ echo $TAPE 
/dev/fd0
$ ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/arch/x86-linux/gnu CC="gcc 
-m32 -march=i586" CXX="g++ -m32 -march=i586" LDFLAGS="-m32" CPPFLAGS=-Wall
...
$ make
...
$ make check
...
 96: storing long sparse file names                  FAILED (sparse04.at:35)
...

After I "unset TAPE" and redo "make check", all tests pass.

Bruno
