I don't have any personal experience with this bug, but according to
the following post, it was fixed in tar 1.24:
  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2012-10/msg00039.html


The patch referenced in that message is just one line, and can be found
at:
  
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/commit/?id=e21d54e8cd3d8026ad56f90cc6bde831106c2cb9

(If I understand the patch correctly, it appears that the segfault is
only triggered when a plain "/" is included in the list of files to add
to the archive....)
