It seems to me that it's only GNU tar that's missing man pages - I'm pretty sure that the other Unixes I use have man pages for tar. Seems to me that at least DYNIX, DYNIX/ptx, SunOS and Solaris all have them. Of course, they don't use GNU tar, but barring any copyright complications it might be a good place to start.
