If you are doing it, it might make sense to include it from
Makefiles in subdirectories, so that on a platform with non GNU
tar, you could say:

	$ cd t
	$ make

and get TAR=gtar definition from ../config.mk

I think Smurf's libize repository has something like that; it is
found at:

        $ cat .git/remotes/smurf
        URL: http://netz.smurf.noris.de/git/git.git
