"/usr/bin/tar.exe" hangs, Windows 10, CYGWIN_NT-10.0 3.0.7(0.338/5/3) 2019-04-30 18:08 x86_64

[Keith Christian]

Tar in recent updates to Cygwin64 hangs.

When the tar command is run with strace, it generates voluminous
output but won't list tar file contents or extract the tar file (or
tar.gz, tar.xz, etc.)

tar --version
