[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53695] tar.m and unpack.m are incompatible with BSD tar

[Sebastian]

Follow-up Comment #14, bug #53695 (project octave):

This is more complicated than I expected. Without checking which tar (bsd/gnu)
we cannot figure out if the output "a xyz" of tar means 
1. the file with name "xyz" was added by bdstar to the archive or
2. the file with name "a xyz" was added by gnutar to the archive

So we have to check what tar we are actually using. The solution attached is
not elegant but it works...
