Indeed; when I adjusted my PATH so that GNU tar came first, this test passed
without any trouble. I had used --with-gnu-tar to configure to specify my
GNU tar.

OK, so 1.13 is the latest. IBM gets some credit *this* time :-)
However, now I have this:
======= TESTING: what-changed =======
Test 1: null changeset
/home/jgoerzen/programs/tla-1.1/src/tla/tests/test-what-changed.sh[14]:
test: 0403-004 Specify a parameter with this command.

Switching the bang path in test-what-changed.sh to point to bash made no
difference. It was still invoking /usr/bin/test, and I can't get the FSF
coreutils to extract.... so I'm stuck here at the moment, and I'm not sure
exactly where the problem is.

Really, I do. :-)
