Bugzilla Bug 35701

If environment variable TAPE is defined, dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1 fails to
unpack the distribution.

What's happening is:
  - the ebuild doesn't explicitly specify an input file to the tar command that
unpacks the distribution
  - when the tarball to extract is not explicitly given on the command line,
GNU tar 1.13.25:
      - checks whether the TAPE env. variable is defined; if so, it tries to
read the file named there (typically something like /dev/st0 or
remotehost:/dev/st0)
      - if TAPE is not defined, reads the tarball from standard input

A patch is attached.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.TAPE=helium:/dev/nrst29; export TAPE
2.emerge blackdown-jdk
3.

Actual Results:  
>>> Unpacking j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin...
tar (child): helium\:/dev/nrst29: Cannot open: Input/output error
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now

bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
        perhaps it is corrupted?  *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Invalid argument
        Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
