When you get this it is usually a sign that the files within the tar archive 
have paths too long for the standard tar program. Use gtar (gnu's tar instead).

I think I hit the same problem on Solaris.

This is a bit of a problem because unlike "*.gz" there is no commonly accepted
convention for a gnu tar archive. As far as I know it is the same format - just
less buggy.

Hmmmm - perhaps I better put this in the FAQ. Are other people getting this too?
