This doesn't contain enough information imo to make sure that we can do something with this. Tim; I copied you in since you are the maintainer of BSDtar as far as I know; I have a bsdtar.core file available for you if you want to have that give me a yell. I didn't have my system compiled in with DEBUG options etc so I am not sure whether there is relevant data in it.
