like the log you already quoted says: Please send `tests/testsuite.log' and all information you think might help:
Some information that might help: http://old.nabble.com/tar-1.23-test-91-failure-on-linux-td27873397.html and http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-tar@gnu.org/msg02540.html
Created attachment 238475 [details] tests/testsuite.log Some information that is useless, but was requested.
required info was provided -> reopen
added the fix from upstream for skipping this test when run as root to tar-1.23-r3. if it doesnt cause problems, i'll add it to current stable too. http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/patch/?id=67b4f3519d838c6f16f5b6b63c0b9b8669fb3dd9
