Well, perhaps the argument list passed to tar is too long as the error
message suggests?  You can only pass a certain number of command-line
arguments when executing a program.  This number is usually pretty
large (on the order of 32k or 64k), but it's platform-dependent.  Add
debug code to print out the full command line being executed, or at
least to print out the number of arguments in the command line.
