[Harbour] proper tar utility for Windows

[Viktor Szakáts]

Thanks Francesco.
I'd prefer something CLI, the gnuwin32 one doesn't handle -z option,
so files have to be manually ungzipped first. It also fails to create
the \include\openssl dir content properly. These are links in the tar,
and it creates .lnk files (untgz32 creates zero byte files). Both make
the build process file.

[ I've tried the msys one, but it doesn't do anything. ]

Brgds,
Viktor
