OK, thanks, to move forward on that part, I installed the following
patch into gnulib.  I'll look at the other tar problems later.

openat: work around AIX 7.1 fstatat bug
Problem reported by Kevin Brott for GNU tar, in the thread containing
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2011-08/msg00015.html>.
* lib/fstatat.c (rpl_fstatat): Do not invoke underlying fstatat if
FSTATAT_ST_SIZE_ETC_BROKEN.
(fstatat) [FSTATAT_ST_SIZE_ETC_BROKEN && HAVE_FSTATAT]: #define to
rpl_fstatat.
* m4/openat.m4 (gl_FUNC_FSTATAT): New macro, with the fstatat-relevant
part of gl_FUNC_OPENAT.  Also, check for the AIX 7.1 bug, and use
AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE for fstatat.
(gl_FUNC_OPENAT): Use it.  Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE for
fchmodat, mkdirat, openat and unlinkat.
