[Bug-tar] -O (stdout) bug

When I use this command:
tar -O -K"atk-1.9.0.info" -xf /mnt/chori/usr/pkg/atk-1.9.0.mcpkg
Just I obtain some strange character combination (the content of the
file) in the place of the content from "atk-1.9.0.info" that is inside
"/mnt/chori/usr/pkg/atk-1.9.0.mcpkg".
If I don't use -O I can obtain the file "atk-1.9.0.info" and the
contents of it is correct. I can solve it momentainly with:

tar -K"atk-1.9.0.info" -xf /mnt/chori/usr/pkg/atk-1.9.0.mcpkg
cat atk-1.9.0.info
rm atk-1.9.0.info

The file "pkg/atk-1.9.0.mcpkg" is a .tar.gz file. Maked with the
commands "tar -cf" and "gzip".

I'm using: tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1

I can observe than using -O is more slowly than just extracting the files.

That all folks. Thank you for making this nice tool.
