Defect Description: PHCO_30139: ( SR:8606324124 CR:JAGae86589 ) The source code for tar(1) has a routine having the same name as a system call. When libnsl calls this system call, it gets resolved to the definition of the function in tar(1) resulting in coredump. Resolution: Change the name of the routine in tar(1).
