Thanks for the report, this issue seem to be fixed in tar's git from
commit 738fb9c and up:

  commit 738fb9c2f44eee567bb60e22dc011bdfd2f362a8 (refs/bisect/bad)
  Author:     Sergey Poznyakoff <address@hidden>
  AuthorDate: Sun Sep 15 10:13:45 2013 +0300

      Take into account chdir_fd when extracting from incremental dumps.

Could we install upstream testcase for recursive unlink?  Possible patch
attached.
