[uClibc] buildroot make/tar preference question

in every .mk file in buildroot/make/, the tar command used to extract sources
is called with '-xvf' ... i dont know about anyone else (and hence this
e-mail), but the -v part is useless to me ... often times i want to watch
portions of a build to make sure things dont break only to get it flooded
with useless info by tar
when it comes to tar, i only want to know if it worked or failed, not the
names of every single file in the archive ...
is this just something that has always been that way and no one cared ?
