IMO tar should live in /bin as it is used to restore a system from tape.
I don't know why ``dump'' is in /usr/sbin -- only restore should be
there.
/usr/bin/tar is statically linked so it isn't depended on /usr/lib/ which
may be terribly broken (and thus why you are doing a restore).

Has nothing to do with it.
