We need the PAX format from any source. I switched to the pax command because POSIX defines it and silly me thought a POSIX OS would always provide it. 

If all the tar implementations support an option to generate the PAX format we can change back to tar. 

We need to: 
- check tar on each host
- check a test exe that is built

Would this be a simpler long term solution?
