gnutar is needed for some packaging, such as the SDK. While testing work for bug 1165512, I noticed that it doesn't get installed as part of "mach boostrap", and the SDK ends up silently failing to get packaged because OS X's tar doesn't support --owner.

add gnutar to list of packages for homebrew/macports

Good catch. Glad to see more parts of automation detecting lackings in `mach bootstrap`!
