Research direction
Begin with the reported configure failure in build_dir/host/tar-1.34 and review the issue's missing environment details. Investigate the mknod FIFO privilege check and determine the expected non-root configure behavior; done means the behavior and a reproducible resolution are documented or implemented, with validation of the host tar build.
