Nothing but wait.  The reason that tar doesn't print the characters
while find does is probably related to find callng setlocale and
tar doesn't.  I hope to get this fixed in the next couple of days.
We're discussing the entire locale stuff on the cygwin-developers
list right now, see the threads starting at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-09/msg00009.html
and
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-09/msg00017.html

My current locally patched DLL doesn't have that problem anymore,
so we're hopefully on the right way.
