CentOS tar-1.14.* is known bad, I'm using 1.15-1 myself, with 1.13-25
installed as a fallback available with a rebuild/reinstall of amanda, a
6 minute job typically...
Actually, centos-4's tar seems to work just fine. They recently fixed a sparse files bug in it, and it seems quite happy. I've recently done a few multi-TB backup/restores with it with no problem. 

Or is there something I'm missing?
As to centos vs. FC, I prefer centos if only for the longer life cycle and the feeling that it's a bit more tested than FC. That being said, I've never run FC, so take that all with a grain of salt.
