I'm sorry but are you requesting that I remove the check and use $TAR
instead, or allow overriding with TAR, and fall back to gtar or tar
respectively?  If the former, should the script unconditionally assume
that TAR will be always set in the environment, or include fallback to
tar for when the script is run directly?
