tar-1.26.4 under 10.12: error compiling

Hi all:

Still haven’t been able to completely get through bootstrapping on 10.12 with the fink-sierra-alpha-bravo commit, unfortunately. While there’ve been nice advances over the past week or so, the current issue looks to be with configure falling on tar-1.26.4:

....
/usr/bin/tar --no-same-owner --no-same-permissions -xf /sw/src/tar-1.26.tar.bz2  
perl -pi -e "s/(textdomain \(PACKAGE\)\;)/\1\ngettext\(\"\"\)\;/" src/tar.c
/sw/bin/fink -y install libgettext8-dev libiconv-dev
Use 'fink reinstall fink' to switch distributions
from 10.11 to 10.12.
'install' operation not permitted.
### execution of /sw/bin/fink failed, exit code 29
phase compiling: tar-1.26-4 failed
...

Package manager version: 0.40.99.git
Distribution version: selfupdate-point (bootstrap), 10.11, x86_64
Trees: local/main stable/main
Xcode.app: 8.0
Xcode command-line tools: 8.0.0.0.1.1470584367
Max. Fink build jobs: 4

If I try to manually build tar from within /src/src/fink.build/tar…, configure fails:  

sudo ./configure  
...
checking whether mknod can create fifo without root privileges... configure: error: in `/sw/src/fink.build/tar-1.26-4/tar-1.26':
configure: error: you should not run configure as root (set FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 in environment to bypass this check)
...

It’ll build manually in an environment with the flag set as requested, FWIW.  

Can anyone verify this and suggest a fix?  

Many thanks,  
Kevin
