Comment (by Chris Johns):

 Hand testing with MSYS's `tar` (GNU tar) indicates links are handled with
 a suitable file copy.

 It could be changing the RSB from `bsdtar` to `tar` may be a workable
 solution. The use of `bsdtar` seems to be before 2012 ...

 I remember there was a number of issues getting the source unpacked on
 Windows. I can build arm tools with `tar`.
