Looks like this was meant to workaround some limitations with
non-GNU tar variants (like BSD-tar which are present on Mac os BSD hosts).
Though, I cannot find any use of that `+s` option that's mentioned
in the comment.
Last hash of this I found was 24faf55360
In my case, it now this fails for `python-setuptools` on Mac OS X (the host-build with):
```
trapret 2 tar -C <home-dir>/work/sources-work/lede/build_dir/target-i386_pentium4_musl-1.1.15/python-setuptools-27.2.0 --strip-components=1 -xzf <home-dir>/work/sources-work/lede/dl/setuptools-27.2.0.tar.gz
bash: trapret: command not found
```
So, I was thinking maybe it's time to remove this workaround (9 years later).
I could also fix the `python-setuptools` host build. If that's more preferred.
[ Btw, I just recently transitioned to a Mac machine for dev-ing,
so a lot of (this Mac) stuff I'm finding out is new to me too. ]

This is the buildsystem for the LEDE Linux distribution. Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred configuration for the toolchain and firmware. You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into package/feeds/. Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image. Simply running "make" will build your firmware. It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, the kernel and all choosen applications. To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system. Sunshine! Your LEDE Community http://www.lede-project.org
