Bug Description
I tried to create an archive which is bigger than 4GB on an FAT32 Volume, it's clear for me that it isn't possible, but tar crashed and don't give an output why it is crashing or why it's not possible to create this archive.
I think this is a important usability criteria.

I have the same problem. I join the crash file.
Important note : I have the same problem when I want to copy with cp this file to the usb drive in fat32.
