Installation with home-brew gnu-tar fails

[adamjt]

I used homebrew to install gnu-tar in the past because of a problem with OS X's built-in tar. This causes docker-osx installation to fail. The output of docker-osx shell is:

I have not installed gnu-tar, I'm using bsdtar 2.8.3 - libarchive 2.8.3 which is the OSX default, and get the same failure.
