from memory i have not deliberately removed the i386 package, but you are right it is not there, however rpm does seem to know about /bin/tar

although i agree its something rpm db related as reinstalling tar via rpm rather than yum solves the problem, however i dont see how this situation has arisen.
rm /bin/tar will remove the binary but not update the rpmdb.
rpm -V {package} to verify the package installation.
