Please remember that users having generic linux kernel do not report this problem. Also this output will represent what problem I have:

Those files marked 'no such file or directory' are the one broken after untar. Hope this helps. Do not forget amd64 kernel ! I have another laptop at my home with linux generic kerenel and everything seems fine.

I've looked at the strace output and it looks fine.
The 'tar' in question had no apparent problems

extracting from the tarball you sent me, using tar 1.26
on Fedora 15.

What are the exact failure symptoms that you are observing?
