Is there a list of known working/broken tar versions? I remember discussions about versions < 1.13.19 not building indexes correctly (and was bit by that myself when I first started), and I saw some remarks about the latest (at some time) version not working. Just asking because in the last week Debian Sarge is now distributing tar 1.14. My amanda at work is built to use a local version, but my home setup isn't. I intend to test it with some restores, but if there are some subtle changes I might not notice until it's too late ;-).
