[Bug-tar] Cross static build failure

[John Wyatt]

versions affected 1.13.90, 1.13.92, possibly cvs
distro Slackware 9.1, little modifications
gcc 3.2.3, pentium 4,

Purpose
Building tar for an lfs(linux from scratch) toolchain,
using the option to go competly static.

Commands (Note: configure was cut off in the email)
LDFLAGS="-static" ./configure --prefix=/tools
--disable-nls
make
make install

Result
make[1]: Entering directory
`/mnt/lfs/tools/tar-1.13.92/m4'
make[2]: Entering directory

Do note that 1.13.25 still works in a static build
