Open an eshell:

      M-x eshell <enter>

Type this command in the eshell

      tab --warning=no-timestamp -xf <tab>

emacs will hang and has to be killed.

This behavior does not occur when only typing

      tar -xf <tab>

I believe the attached patch fixes this. It ensures that even when 'pcomplete/tar' encounters an option it doesn't recognize, it continues to make forward progress.
