Follow-up Comment #48, bug #44007 (project octave):
In the mean time I found out why gnuwin32 tar.exe doesn't work in Octave:
Indeed it depends on its very old libiconv-2.dll and refuses to run with the
one built by MXE (that is ~12 years newer). OTOH Octave refuses to start with
the old (2003) libiconv-2.dll (obviously).
Maybe if we can build our own gnuwin32 tar.exe the whole unpack.m/tar.m issue
is solved.
