Hi
It seems the tar -J option was introduced with tar version 1.21
I upgraded my host to the latest tar version (1.26) and now it udev 181 builds.
Maybe this is something to check for in the core dependencies check.
My debian lenny had version 1.20 in its package list.

Or rather we should patch the udev code so that it doesn't use -J, but
instead bunzip2 + tar.

-J is xz, not bzip. I think the way forward is one or more of:
- Extend host-tar handling to build for tar<1.21
- Teach udev upstream a configure option to disable tests
- Convince udev upstream to use a basic .tar.gz for test
